Descripción editorial
A fun, rhyming read-aloud Halloween picture book that starts a new holiday tradition. Perfect for kids 4-8 or any young child wanting to celebrate the spookiest season of the year!
Marching in the school parade
in frightening costumes that we've made;
Look around, the signs are clear,
Halloween is getting near!
Halloween is Coming is a lyrical celebration of the building excitement that children—and adults!—feel as the magical and mysterious night of Halloween approaches.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Invited to "look around, you'll see the signs," readers follow three friends—an Asian child, a Black child, and a white child who uses a wheelchair—as they enjoy a full slate of seasonal activities. From hayrides to corn mazes, from jack-o'-lantern carving to a school costume parade, Wen's cheery cast bops all over a quaint town as various monsters appear in each scene—a ghost near a hay-bale castle, a goblin on a rooftop. At last, "it's tricks, and treats, and frights, and fun,/ and spooky things for everyone" at a neighborhood celebration. Though Everett's rhymes can be bumpy, Wen's ethnically inclusive suburban neighborhood and the volume's seek-and-find elements make this an enjoyable read. Ages 4–8.
