ABOUT THE BOOK
Trick-or-treat! Mouse and Bear are back in a spooky and spectacularly silly follow-up to Ross Collins’s beloved There’s a Bear on My Chair.
It’s Halloween night and Bear is determined to scare Mouse. Mouse, however, isn’t fooled by Bear’s half-hearted attempts to dress up—his ghostly wailing is just plain ridiculous and his werewolf smells like wet dog. But wait! Who’s knocking at the door now? This mysterious monster might just give them both a fright!
MY THOUGHTS
Bear and mouse are friends. Bear assures mouse he’s going to scare him, but mouse doesn’t believe him.
Bear proceeds to dress up in a bunch of different Halloween costumes that he assumes will scare mouse but mouse isn’t scared at all.
Very visually appealing children’s picture book, the pumpkins where just so cute in the book. They were spookier looking than bear.
The story had rhyming words on each page and children would enjoy having this read to them.
I was given a complimentary copy of this book.
