Watermelon Wishes
by Lisa Moser, Stacey Schuett
Age: K - 2
Family: Grandpa
Season: Summer
"When Grandpap teaches Charlie how to plant watermelon seeds in the spring, Charlie hopes they’ll grow a "Wishing Watermelon." Grandpap has never heard of such a thing, and when he asks Charlie what he would wish for, Charlie won't tell. Through a whole summer of biking, fishing, basketball, and waiting for watermelons together, Grandpap tries to guess his grandson's harvest wish" (Goodreads feature review).
It was fun to read a story where the child was holding the secret twist to the plot, not the adult, where the adult was curious and inquisitive and the child held the answer. For beginning readers, most all pictures match the words.
