He exclaims,"You see, the 'Great Pumpkin' rises from the pumpkin patch on Halloween night to bring toys to all the children in the world!"<BR><BR> Peppermint Patty looks at the reader as he continues,"Here of course, is where some scholars disagree..." He asks,"What do you think so far?"<BR><BR> She replies,"I'm thinking, should I invite you in, or should I slam the door? I think I'll slam the door..."
