JEB'S JUST A GOOD OLE COUNTRY BOY!

"It's mighty hard work scaring crows all day..." the story begins. By the time it ends you feel like you know good ole, determined Jeb the scarecrow; his heartfelt love of his pumpkins, Mommo and Daddo and even those pesky crows. The story is extremely entertaining with an interesting surprise ending that even I didn't see coming! This is classic storytelling. JEB SCARECROW'S PUMPKIN PATCH immediately seizes your attention. The illustrations are very colorful and at the same time, highly unique with fantastic highlights and shading. Some pictures are soft and others very bold which adds to the intensity of the story.I feel that if there were 20+ reviews on this book every single one of them would be 5 stars. There is just nothing you can improve on in this story! Thank you, Jana. You've got a winner here. A wonderful story for the Fall/Halloween season! Highly recommended. 10/10.
