Lindsay (1807 KP) rated It's Time for Halloween in Books
Mar 2, 2026
I do this with most of my board books. However, I do hold on to them for a bit or for special occasions. I read this book in a few minutes, and I really enjoyed it. The layered view as you turn the pages is a neat idea I haven't seen in a board book. I also enjoyed that one of the critters could be seen from the beginning to the end of the book.
The pictures tell the story, and you find different things on each page. Children and little ones can count for pumpkins or who has what costumes. It's all fun and learning for the little ones. There is rhyming going on throughout the book as well.
I really liked the fact that each page has you do a little bit of something different. Your child or children can count or make it so that if the child wants to learn the sounds of the different animals in the book. You can do that with this. This book is for babies to toddlers. It's great for the Fall / Autumn season or for the seasonal holiday of Halloween, which some call it.
