Book excerpt: Selected as a favorite by Laura Bush and displayed at the White House, Chumpkin is the tale of the oversized pumpkin that stole America's heart. Hearts melt when Chumpkin laments the plight of being the largest pumpkin in the patch, wishing he was never planted. Captivating illustrations surround this humorous tale, told in rhyme. Like all Franklin Mason Press titles, a portion of each sale benefits our charity partner, The Four Foundation, for children with pediatric brain tumors. In addition, two pages are saved to publish the work of 6-9 year olds through our Guest Young Authors and Illustrators Contest. This contest has become immensely popular with schools, teachers, and parents and a large part of our marketing program.
