Grade 1–3—Poor Andy. Dolores is going to have a birthday party on Halloween and Andy has to go. Things get more interesting when Andy and Dolores hatch a plan to catch the culprits who have been smashing Dolores's and other people's pumpkins. Andy's final trap not only catches the perpetrators but also ends up being an extra-special present for Dolores. Rachel Lillis reads Jennifer Richard Jacobson's short chapter book (Candlewick, 2006) for beginning readers. While it would have been nice to have a male narrator since the main character is Andy Shane, Lillis performs well. Some sound effects are difficult to distinguish or too short in duration. These minor quibbles aside, this is a solid purchase for any time of the year, and especially for Halloween.—Amy Olson, formerly Lexington Public Library, KY END
