Reach for this book when your toddler or preschooler is caught between the excitement of seeing pumpkins everywhere and the slight hesitation of what a 'spooky' holiday actually entails. It serves as a gentle, rhythmic introduction to the customs of Halloween, focusing on the fun of preparation rather than the fright of the night. The story follows a group of diverse children as they engage in quintessential fall activities like choosing costumes, carving pumpkins, and visiting neighbors.
