Comments

Sweetpea: If you enjoy the kids memory game that goes something like " I went to the beach and I took a towel. " then the next person says "I went to the beach and I took a towel and sunscreen" and the next person repeats and adds one item and on and on. If you enjoy that, then this book is perfect for you.

I'm on the fence because I had already read a counting to 10 halloween rhyme book to my toddler and then started this one and to be honest the repetition drove me nuts ..

I thought it was a little scary for a 3 year old little girl the illustrations are a bit menacing. I think this could be fun for a child over time as they would be able to remember parts of the story without being able to read.

Client d'Amazon: Ce livre est très sympa pour se mettre dans l'ambiance d'halloween mais aussi pour vaincre ses peurs grâce au personnage incarné par la veille femme qui n'a peur de rien. Un livre qui se lit facilement et en rythme des sons des bruits (chaussures, T shirt, etc) de manière amusante. Ça plaît beaucoup aux enfants. Et la fin est très surprenante! Belle surprise. Livre en anglais plein d'humour.

Cherise: My 3 (nearly 4) year old LOVES this story and I can see it being a fave for many halloweens to come!

Sandra Dowkes: We found the video in the library and my grandson watched it ALL the time. When I couldn't find the video I ordered the book - because I watched the video first, I could copy the voice of the little old lady pretty good! This story has captured my grandson's imagination (he's almost 3). When we went on a hike, he copied the sounds perfectly. "Clomp, clomp" went the shoes, etc. Well worth it.

Anna M. Ligtenberg: ISBN 0064431835 - Printed in the U.S.A.. Paperback, 29 pages. By Linda Williams, illustrated by Megan Lloyd. Published by HarperCollins in 1986. Marked for ages 3 to 7.

A brave little old lady, walking home through the woods, is confronted by two shoes. She informs the shoes that they don't scare her and continues on, with the shoes following behind. When she meets up with pants, a shirt, gloves and a hat, and, finally, with a pumpkin head, she repeats herself, but she does walk a bit faster after each meeting. Closing the door at home behind her doesn't end things, as the set of clothes comes knocking. The clothing, particularly the pumpkin head, are very sad that they're unable to frighten the lady, but she has a wonderful idea that gets everyone's approval.

This isn't, exactly, a Halloween book. The carved pumpkin head gives it that appearance, and the fact that it's a scary, tense, story, adds to that impression, but more than Halloween, this is an AUTUMN book. It is perfect for those days when the sun sets early and there's a little hint of coming frost in the air - as long as your young reader isn't easily scared! While the idea of being followed around by...
