Reviews
This just begs to be read aloud to a group of preschoolers, who won't be able to help shouting out their answers. More please. * Kirkus *
There are some especially lovely haikus in the mix, and they often strike a pleasing balance between evocative language and casual phrasings... Playing inky black against bold shades of olive, mustard, and violet, Shea opts for treats over tricks, creating smiley and wholly unthreatening portraits of witches, spiders, scarecrows, owls, and more. * Publishers Weekly *
With its cheerful colors, welcoming smiles, and predictable, participatory pattern, this ghoulish gathering is more friendly than frightful. * The Horn Book *
This picture book is just as clever as the first collection and just as much fun. * School Library Journal *
