Pattan’s Pumpkin by Chitra Soundar

By Lauren Ayube

Pattan’s Pumpkin is about a man who uses his smarts and quick thinking to save himself, his wife, and the animals from a terrible flood. It is a beautifully illustrated retelling of a traditional Indian flood myth that has been passed down for generations. Students will love the animals and the excitement of their journey, and teachers will love the lesson of Pattan’s resourcefulness and problem solving abilities.
