My Review
My Review
It’s
1959, and 11-year-olds Mike and Timmy decide to convert an old mansion into a
haunted house to scare their cousins, Rose and Alice. Their plan is quickly on
its way as they bribe a friend to participate in the Halloween trick. When the
five children arrive at the abandoned mansion, things don’t go as planned. It
looks like someone has something else in mind for the young group.
I
think this is an entertaining Halloween story for young children. It’s not
scary, but rather suspenseful as the Halloween tricks unfold. Tables are turned
on trickster's Mike and Timmy as they become the ones running and screaming on
Halloween night. While someone else is getting the last laugh, the children
experience a night they’ll never forget.

I can't wait for my boys to be old enough for us to start traditions like reading something like this for Halloween! Thanks for posting!
Fun! I too am looking forward to when baby will listen to family read-alouds.
