Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

Little ghouls and boys will love looking behind each door in pop-up artist David A. Carter's Halloween Bugs. "Who’s behind the rusty iron door?" "Who’s behind the enchanted door?" Wouldn't you like to know? Aficionados of Carter’s other buggy books (The Twelve Bugs of Christmas, Easter Bugs, etc.) might have some inkling... six- and eight-legged critters will undoubtedly feature heavily. Behind creepy creaky (or whimsical) doors, readers will find bugs to rival the spookiest Halloween goblins and witches. Beware the "very hairy Scary Bug!" Don’t turn your back on the "one-eyed, one-horned, Spotted People Eater Bug." And think twice before accepting sweets from the "luscious little Lollipop Bug."

Carter's bug books specialize in the spectacular grand finale--he does not disappoint in Halloween Bugs, either! This clever little novelty pop-up is just the thing for every little trick-or-treater--even those of the two-legged variety. (Ages 2 to 6) --Emilie Coulter

I bought this for my 18-month old and he LOVES it. He has a great time opening the "doors" to see the bugs. In fact, he enjoys this so much that I plan to buy one of the Christmas Bugs books too.

Such a cute Bugs series book. This one is one of my 2 year old daughters favorites. We are big fans of this series and these books always help to get the little ones in the spirit of whatever holiday or occasion we are reading on.
