Description

Illustrations and simple, rhyming text explore what would happen if animals went trick-or-treating.

Quick Summary

If your kid loves Halloween and animals, this is a super fun pick. The rhyming text makes it feel like a silly poem that begs to be read out loud, and the illustrations bring the whole thing to life. Kids get a kick out of imagining what each animal would actually do trick-or-treating like would a bear be polite or just take all the candy? The whole thing stays light and playful, so it's perfect for younger kids who might get spooked by anything too scary. At only 256 words it's a quick read, which makes it great for reluctant readers who want a sense of accomplishment without a big time commitment. It feels like the kind of book you'll end up reading together over and over, especially in the weeks leading up to Halloween. If your little one enjoyed "Room on the Broom" or other silly Halloween picture books, this one's right up their alley.
