RESOURCE CENTER Children's Books Reviewed - Creepy Halloween Reading Title: Night Before Halloween This book is a must read if you love Halloween. It is written in the style of Clement Moore’s “The Night Before Christmas.” It is a delightful Halloween story written to a verse that is familiar. The illustrations are awesome. You will want to read this book again and again and again and ... Well, you get the idea. Book Excerpt: T’was the night before Halloween, and all through the house, All the monsters were stirring, except for the mouse. The monsters had gathered to plan and prepare, For the trick-or-treaters, who soon would be there... You’ll love meeting the goofy goblins and little monsters in this terrific book. But what happens when these Halloween spooks come face-to-face with the children who knock on their door on Halloween? You’ll have to read the book to find out. Natasha Wing and Cynthia Fisher have created an awesome book with this spooky spin-off of “The Night Before Christmas.” It’s sure to be a Halloween classic. Goosebumps If you like the Goosebumps series, you’ll love this book. It is an “earthquaking” story and horribly scary, so be prepared. Brandon loves scaring kids. He thinks it’s funny to “Make ‘em scream.” So, on Halloween, he dresses up by buttoning his shirt over his head and going out as a headless freak. But, there are surprises in store for Brandon. When he goes to a spooky Halloween party where bobbing for rats and doughnuts full of worms are part of the fun, he really gets the creeps. Then, while walking through a cemetery, he is scared out of his wits when a hand pops-up out of nowhere. The end of this book will have you squirming with fright. Stine has done a horrific job with this book. Review syndicated from Suite101. Reviewed by Mary M. Alward, Community Manager at Suite101 for Great Books for Kids and Kids Korner.
