PreS-Gr 1--A good introduction to U.S. Halloween celebrations, this sweet little book has 10 great ways to celebrate the holiday. The unnamed characters with various skin tones and abilities are having a wonderful time as they pick costumes, find the perfect pumpkin, and go trick-or-treating. They "bang drums, blow whistles and dance around with balloons and glow sticks" in the neighborhood parade; and "get into teams, and roll toilet paper around and around to make one kid into a mummy" for a race. Adorable artwork mirrors the simple text perfectly, giving the story a warm, happy feeling about the holiday. The book is clearly meant for the youngest readers, so it does not have anything really scary. VERDICT A good choice for libraries needing books about Halloween for the youngest readers.--Debbie Tanner

Samantha Sweeney

Samantha Sweeney's favorite thing about writing and editing children's books is marveling at how much can be said in so few words. She lives in London in a tall house with a lot of stairs and comes up with some of her best ideas while she's on her way to the kitchen to make strong cups of tea. Her other great passion is soccer, and she is a dedicated supporter of a team that doesn't win very often.

Jordan Wray is an international children's author and illustrator.

When he isn't writing or illustrating, Jordan spends most of his time going on adventures, taking care of his house plants, and dreaming about one day visiting the moon!
