Book Reviews of Dragon's Halloween
Book Review: Three cute stories to scare you on Halloween
Summary: 5 Stars
"Dragon's Halloween" contains three stories all about Dragon and, what else, Halloween. Some things are meant to be.
We know this is a good dragon before even opening the book. How? See on the cover? Watch the mama cat and her five young cats. They surround Dragon in friendship.
Turn the page and Story 1 begins: "Six Small Pumpkins." Dragon is going about his collection of one giant pumpkin for Halloween and is seeking it in the Free Pumpkin Patch, but voila, all the giant ones are gone! Oh my, what to do?
Dragon collects the remaining six and conceives a plan for making these little ones scary! His friends Alligator and Fox come along and pretty much laugh at Dragon for thinking he can make something scary out of things so small. They are on the ground laughing their heads off. BUT!! When Dragon lights the candles in the pumpkin, they screech with terror and flee the scene. Yikes! Even Dragon is frightened by the Pumpkin Scary Man he has created. He runs home, hides under the bed, where he stays until it is time for Story 2.
The next two stories are just as scary and humorous: "The Costume Party" and "The Deep Dark Woods." Poor Dragon.
Dav Pilkey, the author/artist, created this darling character before he created Captain Underpants, known to children far and wide. Dragon is just as beloved, except by a younger audience.
