"Pumpkinheads perfectly captures that feeling of the last night that's the start of the rest of your life."--Mariko Tamaki, Printz Honor-winning cocreator of This One Summer and Laura Dean Keeps Breaking Up with Me
"Fun, funny, and wise."--Gene Luen Yang, Printz and Eisner Award-winning author of American Born Chinese"[Pumpkinheads] is more than a story about a last evening at a beloved pumpkin patch; it is about being confident enough in a friendship to speak both challenge and truth -- even the truth that makes you feel vulnerable, but could set you on a new, rewarding path." --The New York Times "A fall-tastic good time, brought to you from the best of the YA and graphic literature worlds."--Bustle "Dreamy."--Entertainment Weekly "A heartwarming, funny story filled with richness and complexity."--Kirkus, starred review
"There's something for everyone in this joyful, tender book. Fans of Rowell and Hicks will gobble up this graphic novel like it's Frito pie, and after just one nibble, newcomers will do the same--and ask for seconds." --School Library Journal, starred review
"Art by Hicks turns the sweetly witty dialogue by Rowell into a miniature autumn universe; precise, affectionate details will coax readers to revel in the cozy atmosphere." --Publisher's Weekly, starred review
"Expect this tender, sweet romance to be popular with a wide range of readers-- and let's hope this isn't the last graphic novel collaboration between Rowell and Hicks." --Horn Books, starred review "This is a Hallmark movie in graphic-novel form, as sweet as a candied apple and as warm as a steaming cup of cider with two lovable and inevitably paired leads.... Have this ready when the fall sweaters come out and the crisp air arrives." --The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books "Rowell's one of the biggest names in YA; don't be surprised if readers who otherwise turn their nose up at comics seek this one out." --Booklist
