I purchased this book before I read it, but I will never regret it. With a wholesome, old-fashioned feel, it is just a tasting of delicious Halloween stories.

A Newbery Halloween is a collection of short, humorous stories with plenty of fantasy. It is filled with great spell binding stories for the whole family!
