Category: Halloween

Wendell, Floyd, and Mona can't seem to avoid trouble, particularly on Halloween! It all starts when a black cat crosses their path while they're walking home from school, which seems to cause all their costumes to go awry. Then, while trick-or-treating, some of their neighbors surprise them with tricks instead of treats. As if that weren't bad enough, a pack of nasty witches is chasing them through the neighborhood, making fun of their costumes! Will the kids be able to save their Halloween from disaster?

When a black cat crosses the path of Wendell, Floyd, and Mona, Wendell announces: "Anything can happen on Halloween."

Sure enough. The three pals encounter costumes gone wrong (like Wendell's suddenly pink mad scientist costume), tricks instead of treats, nasty treats like "Broccoli Chews", witches, invisibility, and some unexpected magic.

The kids I read to (and I) are crazy for all of Mark Teague's books. We especially love his slightly off-kilter picture books starring Wendell, Floyd, and Mona--and we're thrilled to be sharing Halloween with them!
