It is Halloween and Bear is determined to scare mouse.(jacket summary)
It's Halloween Day and Bear wants to give his friend Mouse a good Halloween scare! He tries several different costume ideas but no matter what he tries, Mouse is just to brave and will not scare easily.
This is a funny story to read to the little ones for the Halloween season. Bears homemade costumes are cute and Mouse's reaction about not being impressed was comical. The rhyming text is quick and simple but there were some big words such as; specter, stench and cheese fondue that might have the little ones wondering the meanings of each word. The illustrations are entertaining and kids will giggle at the twist at the end when an unexpected trick-or-treater drops by and gives Mouse and Bear a big surprise. I think this is a "just right book" for ages 3-6.~
