Very cute。 This is 36-pages and it's very colorful。 I love the line, "The wicked witch said, "Welcome。 We have a surprise。" And the children said, "Run! It's not a disguise!" The book is only as long as the poem。

A great Halloween read for the kids。

My daughter loves it
Kimberly,
This was a pretty good storytime book。 It did have a culturally sensitive topic about gypsies on page 16。

For: spooky/Halloween fans; readers looking for a book about Halloween with lots of rhythm。Possible red flags: rhyme and illustrations feature a Romani costume and use the slur, which would have been less jarring when it was originally written--prepare to have a conversation。

We went through a phase when we read that EVERY SINGLE NIGHT for at least two months。 It was Riri, she loved it so much that she was able to say many lines by heart at 3。。。 While reading the same thing over and over again might seems like a chore, it was not really。 The book is short and has a musical quality that makes it pleasing to the ears。 I enjoyed it, making voices and all that jazz。。。 It is funny how kids will get fixated on things sometimes。 This book has been buried for half a year or We went through a phase when we read that EVERY SINGLE NIGHT for at least two months。 It was Riri, she loved it so much that she was able to say many lines by heart at 3。。。 While reading the same thing over and over again might seems like a chore, it was not really。 The book is short and has a musical quality that makes it pleasing to the ears。 I enjoyed it, making voices and all that jazz。。。 It is funny how kids will get fixated on things sometimes。 This book has been buried for half a year or so, but recently Riri asked for it again。 That one night did not turn out in a weeks or months this time。。。Fun little book。 。。。more

Adorable adaptation of “‘Twas the Night Before Christmas” with delightful illustrations。 Monsters, ghosts, witches and mummies get a chance to enjoy the holiday together。。。but will the young human trick-or -treaters join them? Happy Halloween!🎃

My 3 kids and I enjoyed reading this book。 The story was cute and easy to follow along with。 I would recommend this book to others。
Rebekah,
This is so cute and really stays with the rhythm of the original poem。
Jodie,
I really enjoy this series。 It has some great storylines and I love the way Natasha Wing finds a way to use the Night Before for pretty much any occasion。 This one is cute and I can't wait to share it with my niece and nephew。 I really enjoy this series。 It has some great storylines and I love the way Natasha Wing finds a way to use the Night Before for pretty much any occasion。 This one is cute and I can't wait to share it with my niece and nephew。 。。。more

The Night Before Halloween is a children's picture book written by Natasha Wing and illustrated by Cynthia Fisher。 It is a book about a family of monsters getting ready for Halloween for the upcoming children trick-or-treaters。 As today is the eve of Halloween, I thought reading this book would be apropos。Wing's text is simplistic and lyrical。 It is written in the style of "The Night Before Christmas"。 The poem was written especially well and follows the rhythm and style of the original poem ext The Night Before Halloween is a children's picture book written by Natasha Wing and illustrated by Cynthia Fisher。 It is a book about a family of monsters getting ready for Halloween for the upcoming children trick-or-treaters。 As today is the eve of Halloween, I thought reading this book would be apropos。Wing's text is simplistic and lyrical。 It is written in the style of "The Night Before Christmas"。 The poem was written especially well and follows the rhythm and style of the original poem extremely well。 Fisher's illustrations are wonderfully depicted, albeit a tad cartoonish, but represented the text rather well。The premise of the book is rather straightforward。 The book is divided into two – the first and last parts bookend the story with Monsters getting ready for Halloween the night before。 The middle of the book have the children enjoying Halloween day and going trick-or-treat during the night – the last house the most scariest – the monster house。 Unfortunately, the children were all too scared and ran away to enjoy the monster's party, but they enjoyed it nevertheless on their own。All in all, The Night Before Halloween is a wonderful children's book done in the style of "The Night Before Christmas"。 Although, I wished that the children were not scared away by the monsters and enjoyed the party with them, but it was a good story nevertheless。 。。。more

Meg McGregor,
This is a story based on the poetic story of The Night Before Christmas。 It is well written and helps bring back such wonderful memories!I particularly enjoyed this part。"The monsters all cheeredas they danced with delight,'Happy Halloween to all -And to all a fright night!"I used to love taking Katherine trick-or-treating! We dressed up, and went to carnivals and Safe Streets, or church activities。I am hoping one day I will have a grandchild that I can take trick-or-treating one day!

Miss Sarah,
Children get ready for Halloween, party and then trick or treat。 fun and fast paced。 preschool and up for length
Gerry,
good book for the boys
Alison,
The title is not so fitting even though the book is in the style of The Night Before Christmas。 Most of the story takes place ON Halloween。
Sabrina,
Sunshine loves Halloween and this book is perfect in capturing the fun of the holiday。 Sunshine and I loved saying “trick or treat” and “Happy Halloween” louder and louder。 Such an engaging story。
James,
I will own upfront that my review of this work is biased on two accounts - first, my son, to whom I have read this book multiple times, was born on the titular night and, second, Halloween is a big to do in my life- we hosts parties and attend events more in that holiday than mist others。 Having said that, the story, as other reviewers note, readily creates a version of Twas the Night Before Christmas for the Halloween season, with creatures and the like working through the night to prep for the I will own upfront that my review of this work is biased on two accounts - first, my son, to whom I have read this book multiple times, was born on the titular night and, second, Halloween is a big to do in my life- we hosts parties and attend events more in that holiday than mist others。 Having said that, the story, as other reviewers note, readily creates a version of Twas the Night Before Christmas for the Halloween season, with creatures and the like working through the night to prep for their holiday。 My kids love it and it is read with the same holiday zeal we reserve for the original poem at Christmas。 You may not find it as easy to revel in it as I do, but with few great kid friendly poems out there for Halloween or creature loving Pre-K populations, you could do way worse than seeking this work out in your local bookstore! 。。。more
