The Cat in the Hat

For a school project, Lily had the option of making a pumpkin to resemble the likeness of a literary character.
It had to be a character from a book because it was going to be displayed in the library.
The book she chose was I Can Read With My Eyes Shut
The character was Dr. Seuss.

After a fairly expensive trip to Michael's, the girls helped me turn an ordinary orange pumpkin into Dr. Seuss...

After two days of work, the pumpkin was transformed...

The best part of this project:
Watching Lily walk into school with the biggest smile of pride on her face.
I would do this everyday if I could replicate that sweet smile.
