Angelina's Halloween (Angelina Ballerina) (ISBN 014240621X)

Very cute!:
In this next book in the Angelina Ballerina series, Angelina and her friend Alice design beautiful Halloween costumes for themselves. However, Angelina begins to find her little sister's tagging along behind her, trying to copy her, quite tiring. But trouble arrives later in the evening, and Angelina learns another lesson. Once again, this book continues the tradition of excellence set by the other books. Katherine Holabird's writing is interesting and entertaining, while Helen Craig's illustrations just add so much more icing onto the cake. My daughter loves this series, and, frankly, so do I. We both recommend this book to you.

cute little Halloween book:
Angelina's Halloween is a nice Halloween book for 3-, 4-, and 5-year olds, with just the right mix of scariness and other Halloween fun. Angelina is very annoyed that her little sister insists on tagging along beside (or behind) her wherever they go, but she handles her little sister in several different ways, all of them good. The story includes trick-or-treating, a Halloween parade, and other Halloween traditions also. The illustrations are like those in the other Angelina books: nicely drawn, cutesy, and cluttered with images. There's a lot to see on each page. Often my son just likes to explore the illustrations, naming the items on each page, and asking questions. Angelina's Halloween is one of many good Halloween storytime (or bedtime) books for preschool aged children. I recommend it. ken32

Excellent:
This was the annual Halloween book for our three year old granddaughter. She thoroughly enjoyed the book. So much so, I read it three times in a row. You cannot get a better stamp of approval than from a three year old.

Trick-or-Treat with Angelina Ballerina!:
"For Halloween, Angelina and her friend Alice make glorious firefly costumes--complete with delicate wings and tiaras. Angelina's little sister, Polly, wants to be a pretty firefly, too. But Angelina thinks she's too little. Polly settles for dressing up as a ghost and, on Halloween night, gives Angelina a surprise scare!" -- From the back cover This sumptuous book features a sweet story, thick pages, and endearing illustrations with soft colors. At 24-pages and a bit larger than most softcover children books, Angelina's Halloween is a wonderful story celebrating the Halloween season. We have quite a few Halloween books and, quite frankly, this is my FAVORITE book that I love to read to my son (and love having read to ME!). Delightful for adults and youngsters alike, Angelina's Halloween will be especially treasured by fans of the TV series on PBS Kids.

LOVE IT!:
Angelina's Halloween is an excellent book. Good story, and OUTSTANDING pictures. So bright and colorful. All our children love it. They pay attention to when this book is read. When looking at the pictures, it has a cozy feeling and a warm feeling. Also, all of the Angelina books are outstanding and it's worth to have as a little library of Angelina books.
