Pippa the Cheerful Pumpkin

Once upon a time, in a bright orange patch, there lived a cheerful pumpkin named Pippa. Pippa loved to dance in the sun and play hide-and-seek with her friends, the little mice.

One day, as Halloween approached, Pippa dreamed of becoming a spooky jack-o'-lantern. With the help of her friends, they carved a big, happy smile on her face.
