Review Detail

'Bear's Spooky Book of Hidden Things' by Gergely Dudas is for anyone who loves books like 'Where's Waldo?' Even adults may find it difficult to find some of the items hidden in the pages - though that's the fun of it. There is not much of a story, but the point of the book is that Bear wants to find some of his favorite treat - honeycomb - and he goes trick or treating on Halloween in order to get as much of it as he can. In the process, he finds many other items, including a wagon, a mask, a magic wand, an apple, and even a broomstick, among other hidden things.

The kindness of friends and the fun of hunting for your treats on Halloween night brings a sense of fun and games to the story. Anyone who likes the thrill of scavenger hunts will enjoy this spooky and creatively illustrated children's tale.
