This collection of humorous Halloween poems by Charles Ghigna is illustrated in 5 colors by Adam McCauley, who also illustrated the Time Warp Trio series and the Wayside School series.
The poems will go right over the heads of young readers, the humor is more suited for the 8 and up crowd. Ghigna writes about houses that give out the best treats, costume dilemmas, being afraid, werewolves, monsters, pumpkins, ghouls, gargoyles, haunted houses, witches, and trick-or-treating.
My favorite poem in the collection? The Candy Check - a must-read for parents :)
