{My thoughts} – This is a cute little book about trick or treating. It helps to show children that there isn’t any real reason to be scared, because none of the stuff your seeing is actually scary.
The words and the illustrations blend together nicely. They help to show the reader exactly as the author intended them to see. I think it is a book that was brilliantly put together and that it will make a nice addition to any child’s library come Halloween time.
Super cute board book. The ghost of the from sparkles. My daughter loves Halloween everything, so even though she’s a little old for board books, it was cute.
