Halloween can be scary, especially for very young children. This board book with a tab top and finger hole is perfect for kids who are experiencing the holiday for the first time. The black cat on the cover is cute not the least bit scary. The book actually opens in portrait mode and it tells a simple story of a cat who wants to go trick-or-treating, but all of his friends are busy. Owl is making cookies, little witch is preparing a punch. Ghost is carving a pumpkin, and bat is learning a new dance. Why all these preparations—because they are throwing a Halloween party. While it is part of the "Clackers" series—the noise that the pages make when the book is shaken is not really significant. Reviewer: Marilyn CourtotBook Details
