Publisher Description
There's a Halloween party on Shivermore Street, and everyone—from dancing mummies to musical witches—is coming. There'll be whipped-cream-covered ants, pumpkin carving, apple bobbing, and a special surprise when the masks come off at the end of the night. This is a party you don't want to miss!
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
This hokey harvest romp, which boasts the season's corniest title, tolls the hours from six to 13 o'clock. Three costumed children carve pumpkins and bob for apples with other revelers, but when they cry, "Everyone in your place?/ Now take off your face!," they realize their cheerful playmates are real witches and vampires. Pollack and Belviso (the Dexter's Lab books) set the scenes to bouncy limericks, and DuBurke's (The Moon Ring) firelit acrylics lend a ghoulish glow to the theatrical holiday; his human characters pale next to his creepy creatures' portraits. As in previous years' Brooms Arefor Flying and The Witch Casts a Spell both of which are more surprising the punch line relies on the unmasking. Ages 4-8.
