Pumpkin Time: A Story of Growth, Change, and Goodbye

By Mauro Lacovich

One day, the mother plant tells her pumpkins that Pumpkin Time is approaching - the time when pumpkins fulfil their purpose and go where all pumpkins go.

What follows is a gentle and reassuring story about the natural cycle of life, told in a way that feels safe, calm and full of meaning.

Endings, as a natural part of the life, can be difficult to approach with children. In Pumpkin Time, the author uses his unique therapeutic storytelling approach to create a space for families to talk about this inevitable part of life. Rather than offering fixed answers, the story provides a space that allows parents to bring in their own beliefs, values, and spiritual perspectives. In doing so, the book becomes a supportive and adaptable tool for meaningful conversations.
