The little boy can’t wait until Halloween arrives.  Choices to be made, costumes to prepare.  WIll he be ready for the spooky day?

The little boy as a ghost on the endpapers is adorable. And if reading out loud, know when the BOOS are coming so that you can create anticipation. The rhyming text is only so-so. The illustrations really save this one. Some will buy it because Fallon’s name is on it.
