"Twins enjoy some Halloween fun. Luke and Lottie are excited for trick-or-treating; they've already decided on costumes: Lottie will be a witch,and Luke,a ghost. But the duo are still young enough to be a bit fearful of Halloween's scarier side: A spider decoration made of yarn fools them both. After their mother reassures them,she invites them to help her assemble some edible treats,and then they make jack-o'-lanterns with their dad. By then,it's time to head out. Their dad (dressed as a vampire) accompanies them for an evening of trick-or-treating. The night ends when they arrive back at home to tell their mother all about it. Wielockx's characters all have adorable round heads and snub noses,and none of the costumes or sights are scary. The family all has pale skin and brown hair. Amid the costumed trick-or-treaters,two other people appear to have brown skin; the rest are pale. This gentle,simple tale features only treats,making it just right for very little trick-or-treaters. " - Kirkus Reviews"This is a delightful Halloween book. The illustrations are extremely colorful and young children will relate to the fun costumes and family participation. Throughout the book there is much positive preparation for Halloween which includes Luke and Lottie's participation. I love the positive introduction to the spider and the mother's approach to having the children feel the stiffed spider. The book provides Halloween treats that children can create from foods with their Mom. The book includes Dad creating pumpkins into jack-o-lanterns with the children's ideas. The eyes of the characters throughout this book are so alive,warm and inviting." - ITEEA"This is a cute Halloween story for young children. It is not scary at all. In simple text,Ruth Wielockx describes what the family goes through to decorate,get treats ready and decide on costumes. On the night they go out,Dad goes with them and he is also in a costume. The illustrations are cute with smiling children and non-scary costumes. For children new to this holiday,this would also be a great book to teach them about North American customs. This is a great book for a family library or a pre-school or kindergarten classroom. The publisher,Clavis Publishing,provided me with a copy of this book to read. The opinions stated are my own." - Carla Johnson-Hicks - Educator
