Doubt regarding one of the examples above

Tu amèneras des citrouilles pour qu'on les sculpte? I thought "amener" was used for people and animals. Shouldn't we use "apporter" here ?

This question relates to:French lesson "Pour que + the subjunctive mood (Le Subjonctif) = So that.../In order that... in French"

Bonjour Shivani ! Excellent question! Technically, you are correct: amener is for people whereas apporter is for things. Unfortunately, this is one of these very frequent mistakes most French natives make, including myself :) I've now corrected this example :) Merci et à bientôt !
