A delightful Halloween read about costumes, ghosts, and more! BOO!

My first Spooktober read, and well, it wasn’t even Spooktober yet. Haha. But I just couldn’t resist, I had to read something spooky! And I came across this one and knew it was a perfect one as an appetiser.

I absolutely LOVE the adorable title and the cover! It definitely made me curious to see what our motley crew of costumed kids would do when encountering a ghost. I also love the little details on the cover, like the words on the graves.

I love that it starts with Halloween, trick or treat, ah and that makes me wish so much more that we had this in my country. It is slowly happening, but only in small bits. I would have absolutely love Halloween and Trick or Treating when I was a kid. Dressing up! AH! We see how a group of 4 kids are ready to change into their spooky and fun costumes, one is a pumpkin, one is a pirate, another is a vampire, and then there is one who we don’t know yet, but if we go by the cover it will be a ghost! It was just so cute and I love that this group of friends did this one together. But what happens when during the dress up they hear CLANGS, CREAKS, BANGS, and SQUEAKS coming from upstairs! OH my! They decide to create a plan, and the first step is disguises, so get those costumes on! And we get some instructions for one particular spooky ghostly outfit and I loved that, of course it is the simplest outfit to make, but still a lot of fun!

What happens next was just SO cute! Because our quartet of friends, all dressed up, go upstairs and tell us what to do when you hear spooky things! But then something adorable happens and I was just going aww! That was just such a fun ending for this book. This book was 100% spoopy!

I loved the little DIY at the end. More on the ghost and how to make one, but also how to make a cute handpuppet to bring along with you. Extra points for that~

The art was just the cutest, I love the details, the colours, and the little ghost. It was so fun.

All in all, I am happy that this one was my first Spooktober read, even if I read it in September, haha. I would recommend it to all looking for a cute but spooky Halloween read!
