Literary Pumpkins

In October, Little River Elementary proudly launched its first-ever storybook pumpkin patch, sparking excitement across the school. Each grade-level classroom selected a beloved picture book or chapter book to read together, then chose a character to highlight. Students collaborated to design and decorate their class pumpkin, transforming it into a vibrant, three-dimensional version of their chosen literary character. The patch quickly filled with pumpkins inspired by well-loved books, creating a magical space where literature and creativity flourished.
