**Scary, scary Halloween<br />

From <strong>School</strong> Library Journal:<br />

Kindergarten-Grade 3<br />

A Halloween offering that is sure to be snatched up year-round by children on the prowl for scary books. The<br />

rhymes are full of repetitions that give the text the quality of a chant. These marching rhythms advance a b<strong>and</strong> of<br />

Halloween creatures along a winding country road. Bunting's strong verbs <strong>and</strong> Brett's clean, clear line drawings<br />

<strong>and</strong> vivid palette bring a devil, skeleton, ghost, etc., to life, <strong>and</strong> the effect is exciting but not in the least sinister or<br />

fear-inspiring. (Bunting's language does become a bit turgid at points, however.) The creatures are a troupe of<br />

spirited trick-or-treaters, but this is not known by the mother cat who tells story. Nor are readers aware of the<br />

identity of the narrator at the beginning. But as the parade progresses, <strong>and</strong> three more little eyes appear in the<br />

dark, readers begin to get a sense of those eyes warily watching the spectacle from a safe distance. Brett creates<br />

skillful shifts in visual perspective <strong>and</strong> effectively interprets the book's final turnabout: the tiny eyes, mere points of<br />

light, clustered under a house, are hidden so long as the trick-or-treaters are about. But when all is quiet, they<br />

suddenly blossom into cats that form their own parade <strong>and</strong> claim Halloween, just as the rising golden harvest<br />

moon at the book's beginning blossoms into a milky moon above them. Carefully planned <strong>and</strong> executed,<br />

illustrations <strong>and</strong> text nicely unified, this is well designed for group use <strong>and</strong> a fine introduction to Halloween story<br />

programs.<br />
