Review:
"A jack-o-lantern stares from triangular holes: 'Piece of pie,/ pumpkin eye.' A brisk refrain quickens the pace: 'Trick or treat / pounding feet,/ eerie shadows/ fill the street.' Fleming (The Everything Book) kindles seasonal thoughts with concise couplets and handmade-paper images, in which vermilion and fuschia highlights glow like neon against grainy black and evergreen. Her pleasingly spooky visions of peaked roofs, pumpkins and trick-or-treaters convey an expectant atmosphere. Ages 2-5." Publishers Weekly (Copyright Reed Business Information, Inc.)
