How Big Could Your Pumpkin Grow? (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780399246845)

Every year, giant pumpkin contests take place at fairs across the country--the 2012 record-holder weighed over a ton The latest craze is to carve the most enormous pumpkins into racing boats. But what's next? Why not think really big? Award-winning artist Wendell Minor does just that as he imagines larger-than-life pumpkins decorating some of America's favorite places--as immense as the Capitol dome, Mount Rushmore, the Brooklyn Bridge, even the Grand Canyon This celebration of famous landmarks and landscapes plays with concepts of size and scale and is full of fun facts.
