What is Little Boo about?
Little Boo is a tiny pumpkin seed with a big ambition: he wants to be scary. As autumn turns to winter and then spring, he practises his fiercest “Boo!” on snowflakes, bees and even a watering can, but nobody is frightened. The wise wind tells him that growing up takes time, though waiting is difficult when Little Boo is eager to become a proper pumpkin. Through the changing seasons, he discovers that patience may be the most important part of growing.
