Arthur's
Halloween
By Marc Tolon Brown
Review by: Yvonne
Gaudet
Arthur has trouble falling asleep the
night his family decorated the house for Halloween. It seemed a little
scary! The following morning D.W. scares him when she wakes him up in her
costume. Then at breakfast, Arthur's mom reminds him that he needs to take
his sister trick- or- treating that evening. Could things get any worse?
Of course they can when your sisters name is D.W.!
On their
trick-or-treating route Arthur and D.W. have trouble keeping up with their
other friends. D.W.’s tail gets caught, her treat bag breaks, and then
she runs ahead and goes into the house where the witch lives! Arthur is
scared but he must enter the house to get D.W. ,after all, he is
responsible for her!
Another
great book, written by Marc Brown, that keeps the children wondering what
will happen next! Did the witch eat D.W., did she do secret experiments on
her, did she lock D.W. and Arthur in the basement? Rumor has it that the
last children that went to this house, never come back out!
Will
Arthur find his sister and get her back home safely? You’ll need to find
out on your own!
I
recommend this book for ages 4-8, beginner readers may need a little help
reading the words, however the pictures are bright and full of details! My
children enjoyed this one just as much as I did, and I hope you enjoy it
as well!
