Cooking pumpkin soup in the book Pumpkin Soup by Helen Cooper – A big pot of pumpkin soup simmering on the stove while the friends work together to season, stir, and chop is a beautiful picture of friendship and teamwork. They will make you want to move into a little pumpkin of your own with two best friends! However, the pictures of the friends cooking together are my favorite part of the book. The illustrations in this book exude autumnal coziness and warmth. Pumpkin Soup by Helen Cooper “Pumpkin Soup” by Helen Cooper and a bowl of Roasted Pumpkin Soup – Three friends living in a pumpkin. They play music together, stitch quilts together, and make pumpkin soup together, “the best you ever tasted.” But when one of the friends decides to shake things up by trying out another’s job, can their friendship survive?

In the story, three friends, a cat, a duck, and a squirrel, live harmoniously together in a large pumpkin. The fact that the illustrations and words work so well together in this book is especially fitting given that Pumpkin Soup is all about teamwork.

They live in Oxford, England, with their daughter, Pandora.I often find that there is something special about a children’s book written and illustrated by the same person. Her first book was published in 1987, and since then she has written and illustrated many books for children, including "The Bear Under the Stairs," "Dog Biscuit," "A Pipkin of Pepper," and "Delicious!" Helen lives with her husband, Ted Dewan, who also writes and illustrates books. In the evenings, she taught herself to illustrate. Then she played in a band, and got a day job painting posh china animals to make ends meet. When she grew up, Helen trained as a music teacher because that seemed sensible. It rained a lot and there weren't enough kids to play with, but there were compensations: beautiful countryside, horses, and lots of time to write stories, draw pictures, play the piano, and read. When she was two, she moved to a country town in Cumbria, in the north of England, where people collected their milk in cans from the farm, and fairies seemed to lurk in the wildflowers outside.
