Peek-A-Boo

ISBN 0671707221 - Super cute Halloween book for the not yet reading, and maybe even not yet eating candy, set. Illustrations by Ellen Appleby are really sharp and not particularly scary, a good thing for little kids. Very simple rhyming text describes the costumes of children as they trick-or-treat on Halloween. On the same pages are "real" creatures, as well - for example, on the pages that say "An owl hooting, A wolf howling" two children in those costumes approach a house while an owl watches and a wolf howls at the moon. Sturdy board book pages are nice and the small size is great for tiny hands. The images, rather than being scary, are mostly that cute little kids' book cute, so parents won't have to worry about scaring the youngest readers. As an introduction to a holiday they're not really yet ready to enjoy, this is a great little book, especially for those small ones with older siblings who will be out haunting the neighborhood without them. - AnnaLovesBooks
