Hi Christie--

It's Lazy Tommy Pumpkinhead by William Pene duBois. I always loved that book.

Subject: TAR: Book Title

Can anyone help me identify the following for a teacher?  He remembers
it from when he was a child, probably late 60's to early 70's.  He
thinks the word "pumpkin" was in the title.  It was a picture book about
an extremely lazy boy who didn't want to do anything for himself.  His
parents built a machine to wake him up, get him dressed, feed him
breakfast, etc.  The teacher remembers illustrations with a conveyor
belt, etc.  Any ideas?
Thanks!
