Storytelling with Lizzie Ingram

The Little Wonky Pumpkin is a story to show us that being different is wonderful. Every single one of us is unique, which means there is only one of you in the whole world! Magical and exciting Halloween is nearly here when an enormous box arrives in store, bursting with pumpkins ready to find families to love them. Come and meet a little pumpkin who’s just a little bit different from the others… Will the little pumpkin be able to learn what being different means to her?
