    About this audiobook

    All Systems Are Go! Ovulation cycle? Check. Estrogen level? Check. Nothing can stop Ellie Sterling's baby-making attempt at the fertility clinic. Nothing but her CEO boss-- and good friend-- who offers her an alternative to leaving their island headquarters: let's make a baby the old-fashioned way. It isn't that Aidan Sutherland wants to be a baby daddy; he just doesn't want to lose his senior VP. But Aidan's plans for romance and candlelight quickly turn business into pleasure. After one night with his pal Ellie, the bikini-chasing billionaire is dazed, confused and-- could it be-- in love?

      Summary: Sophie and her parents go to the farmers market and pick out a squash for dinner. Sophie decides she doesn't want to use the squash to eat but she wants to use as a friend. Sophie names the squash Bernice and they do everything together, including going to the library, playing with other squash, doing somersaults and sleeping. Eventually, Bernice started to get old and had bruises on her. Other children made fun of her so Sophie's parents tried to get her interested in a new toy. Sophie still wasn't interested so she asked the farmer how to keep a squash fresh. He told her Bernice needed dirt so Sophie buried Bernice in the yard. That night, it started snowing. Sophie couldn't get to Bernice so Bernice stayed under the dirt all winter. Sophie's parents got her a pet fish but she still was not interested. Finally, spring came around and Sophie went outside to find Bernice. She discovered that Bernice had turned into a plant and made 2 smaller squashes. Sophie loved the other 2 just as much as she loved Bernice. Argument: I think this book was a really cute story. It shows how finding an object and loving it can be like having a friend. Sophie loved her squash and it felt like a friend to her. I think children could connect to this message because many children use inanimate objects and pretend like they are their friends. This book is another book that has great illustrations that really enhance the words of the story. Another reason I liked this book was because it had lots of information about the seasons changing. The book went from fall with the leaves falling and the squash, to winter with snow falling to spring with plants growing.

      Sophie's Squash is a fun book about a little girl who befriends and takes care of the squash that came home for supper one evening. The story is super engaging and the illustrations that go along with it really help enhance the close relationship that Sophie has with Bernice, the squash. In this book, Sophie shows unconditional love for Bernice as she totes her everywhere, even somersaulting with her down a hill. In the end, Sophie learns that when you let something go, there might be something just as good waiting to take it's place.

      Sophie's Squash is about a girl who decides to personify a squash. Sophie loves this squash. This squash is her best friend. This squash goes everywhere with her. I'm at a point now in my education where I had to write the sentence "This squash is her best friend", which is a sobering reality. Eventually this squash begins to rot, so she plants the squash in the garden to heal it. Then it produces new squashes. Now Sophie has two squash friends.Good read if you want to educate students about squash. I think this girl needs some non-vegetable friends.

      A silly sweet story of a girl and her squash, for people who are very young and can't do spiders.

      Little girl has a peculiar attachment to a squash.
    • 4/5
      Sophie's squash is an endearing story about friendship being found in the most unlikely places.I loved this story because it shows the way that children's minds work sometimes. When we are younger we get attached to many things that we might think are so precious, and this book did a great job portraying that idea. When Sophie and her parents go to the supermarket, they buy a squash. Sophie starts growing attached to the squash, and her parents tell her she can't be friends with a squash because squash is something that they will eat. Sophie refuses to do such a horrible thing. After time passes on, her squash, Bernice is beginning to rot and Sophie starts investigating hoe to keep it nice and fresh. Eventually Sophie ends up putting Bernice underground hoping that she will get better, but Bernice has decided to do something bigger. She grows and gives fruit to two more squashes, which Sophie ends up loving just as much as she loved Bernice.

      This is a silly book about a little girl who adopts a squash. Sophie takes her squash everywhere much to the chagrin of her parents only to find that over time her squash is getting quite squishy. She puts the squash in the soil and next year gets a surprise! I would recommend this for young school age children who might find humor in it and learn a little about the life cycle of a plant.

      Discover what happens when Sophie decides to befriend the squash her mother bought at the farmers' market. I read it aloud with 1st and 2nd graders and they were hooked. Opens them up to talk about friendship and that friends truly do come in all shapes and sizes. What they really enjoyed was making their own squash friends afterward with a simple paper activity. If I had a real live squash for every one of them, that would have been even better.

      Good book. Ellie wants a baby of her own. She hasn't had any luck finding a husband. The island of Alleria is a great place to live and work, but the men who come there are mainly tourists, so she has decided to have a baby on her own. When she asks for the time off to make it happen her boss offers to give her a baby so that she doesn't have to leave the island. I liked both Ellie and Aidan. Ellie had had a rough time as a child and teenager with an alcoholic drug addicted mother. She and her older sister took care of each other and when their mother died they continued to do so. Ellie is extremely intelligent and once she got her degree she was determined to be the absolute best so that her life wouldn't be uncertain again. Working for Aidan and his brother is the perfect job for her and she has become indispensable to them. She also has a bit of a crush on Aidan though she wouldn't do anything about it and risk her job. So she is stunned when he offers to help her become pregnant so that she doesn't have to leave the island for an extended period. She worries that the lines between them will get confused and that she will fall in love with him. The more time they spend together outside of business the more she finds she was right. She wants more from him than just sex and friendship but she doesn't know how he feels about that idea.Aidan is all about the fun and no commitment when it comes to relationships. He appreciates Ellie for her abilities and doesn't want to lose her for the weeks she would be away. He knows that everything runs better when she is there to oversee it. He has no desire to be a father but is willing to make the sacrifice to keep Ellie on Alleria. He doesn't expect to suddenly notice how beautiful Ellie is and experience an attraction unlike anything he's felt before. I loved seeing how he starts seeing her as a woman and can't get her out of his mind even when he is working. His jealousy when other men pay attention to her is fun to watch because he doesn't know how to deal with it. He keeps denying his feelings to himself even as his brother tries to make him see the truth. I loved the way that he finally went after her and admitted the truth.
