The Pie That Molly Grew

Using the repeating structure of “The House That Jack Built,” this story follows a pumpkin from planting to harvest. Molly plants a single seed and tends it as it becomes a sprout, then leaves, and finally a pumpkin on the vine. The ripe pumpkin is eventually made into pie, which is shared in a celebration of gratitude. The story is told with a rhythmic pattern throughout this growing journey.
