From seed to jack-o'-lantern, Ken Robbins's beautiful book captures the emblem of Halloween: the pumpkin.
From late summer to Thanksgiving, pumpkins are everywhere, a symbol of fall and a reminder of the holidays to come. In this handsome book, Ken Robbins—widely known for his sumptuous photo-essays on subjects ranging from trucks to tools to autumn leaves—portrays the pumpkin from seed, to sprout, to flower, to fully fledged fruit, and back again.
Instructions are given to (safely) carve a jack-o'-lantern.
