From School Library Journal
Kindergarten-Grade 3–A collection of 12 previously published poems. Virginia Kroll's Something's Coming, Craig Crist-Evans's My Pumpkin, and Rebecca Kai Dotlich's Costume Hour set the stage. Michele Krueger highlights the glee of Trick-or-Treating, also expressed in other selections, and the evening winds down with Jane Yolen's On Halloween and Hopkins's 12:01 a.m. The simple yet evocative language will delight beginning readers. For example, in Sweet Tooth, Candace Pearson uses clever wordplay to describe candy corn: A handful/of loose teeth rattle/in my pocket,/triangles of orange/and yellow/bitten off just so.... Each poem is presented on a distinctive spread painted in dusky tones. Schuett's illustrations show a friendly suburban neighborhood, feature a mix of multicultural characters, and reflect all of the fun of this special night. For a double treat, pair this offering with Amy Sklansky's Skeleton Bones and Goblin Groans (Holt, 2004).–Laura Scott, Farmington Community Library, MI
