Age: Preschool-Kindergarten

The ending was adorable (fall looks like snowing leaves!) but there was a lot of ideas put into a slim story. When Penguin and his friends arrive from the arctic they land on the beach and are immediately at the farm, pick their pumpkins, and leave. It would have been really fun to have a few more pages about the pumpkin picking experience. Although the past Penguin books have been suitable for toddlers, this one may confuse them (and even some preschoolers) with talks of the younger penguin imagining Fall on other planets.
