FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description A young girl spends a glorious fall day picking apples and searching for the perfect pumpkin in this refreshed classic. When red and yellow leaves are on the trees, a little girl goes with her parents to a farm where they pick apples and choose the best pumpkin of them all. Back home, she helps to carve a grinning jack-o-lantern face on the big orange pumpkin, which guards their doorstep on halloween night while her mother hands out shiny red apples and she and her father go trick-or-treating with the neighborhood ghosts and goblins. Bold, autumn-colored paintings and a simple but lively story capture a little girls joy and satisfaction as she shares in the excitement of the fall season.

Review "The combination of words and pictures is just right." -- "Horn Book" Long Description New Religious Movements tend to start their lives with a number of unequivocal statements, not only of a theological nature but also about the world and appropriate behaviours for the believer. Yet these apparently inalienable Truths and their interpretations frequently become revised, adjusted or selectively adopted by different believers.This book explores different ways in which, as NRMs develop, stagnate, fade away, or abruptly cease to exist, certain orthodoxies and practices have, for one reason or another, been dropped or radically altered. Sometimes such changes are adapted by only a section of the movement, resulting in schism. Of particular concern are processes that might lead to violent and/or anti-social behaviour. As part of the Ashgate/Inform series, and in the spirit of the Inform Seminars, this book approaches its topic from a wide range of perspectives. Contributors include academics, current and former members of NRMs, and members of cult-watching movements. All the contributions are of a scholarly rather than a polemic nature, and brought together by Eileen Barker, the founder of Inform.
