From early spring and late into the North Carolina fall, there was always a garden in my backyard when I was growing up. My mother and father worked diligently to plant, care, and harvest everything that was sewn into the soil. I did my fair share of grumbling about setting out tomato plants, hoeing weeds, and attempting to pick butterbeans, but I wouldn’t trade anything for those experiences. Our book, The Last Pumpkin, can be linked to those days, days that seemed a lot less hectic than our lives today. I don’t ever recall talking with my parents about this, but I sensed that everything had value to them. Perhaps, it was their depression era upbringing that was always lingering in their minds, but everything in their garden had value, the stubby piece of corn or the misshapen tomato. In all my work in education, I developed an appreciation for the students who could persevere and work through challenging situations no matter how different they might have appeared to their peers. Sort of like Keeper in the story, they kept pushing, working, and hoping for the right set of circumstances that showed they had value and something to offer no matter how different they were.

In Pumpkinheads, beloved #1 New York Times bestselling author Rainbow Rowell and Eisner Award–winning artist Faith Erin Hicks have teamed up to create this tender and hilarious story about two irresistible teens discovering what it means to leave behind a place—and a person—with no regrets. Deja and Josiah are seasonal best friends. Every autumn, all through high school, they’ve worked together at the best pumpkin patch in the whole wide world. (Not many people know that the best pumpkin patch in the whole wide world is in Omaha, Nebraska, but it definitely is.) They say good-bye every Halloween, and they’re reunited every September 1. But this Halloween is different—Josiah and Deja are finally seniors, and this is their last season at the pumpkin patch. Their last shift together. Their last good-bye. Josiah’s ready to spend the whole night feeling melancholy about it. Deja isn’t ready to let him. She’s got a plan: What if—instead of moping and the usual slinging lima beans down at the Succotash Hut—they went out with a bang? They could see all the sights! Taste all the snacks! And Josiah could finally talk to that cute girl he’s been mooning over for three years . . . What if their last shift was an adventure?
