DESCRIPTION:
Iza Trapani is the best-selling author/illustrator of several children's books, including TWINKLE, TWINKLE, LITTLE STAR; I'M A LITTLE TEAPOT; THE ITSY BITSY SPIDER; and RUFUS AND FRIENDS: RHYME TIME. She lives in the Hudson Valley of New York.
The growing melee makes counting each arriving group as challenging as it is entertaining. . From School Library Journal Kindergarten-Grade 2—A muted (but nicely contrasted) palette and creepy creatures inhabit this Halloween counting book: "3 gruesome goblins, gross and green,/With pointy ears that aren't too clean,/Enjoy some really mean cuisine/At the haunted house of the ghost." As skeletons boogie, vampires dunk for apples (dexterously speared on their fangs), and mummies play pin the tail on the monster, the ghost host serves ghoulish treats and sweeps up after the voluminously shedding werewolves. This funny, warmly illustrated rhyme makes an entertaining choice for holiday storytimes.—Susan Weitz, formerly at Spencer-Van Etten School District, Spencer, NYCopyright © Reed Business Informatio

Approved by a four year old My son loves this book. The illustrations are fun and very detailed. He enjoys finding new things in the pictures, almost like a scavenger hunt. Since it is a counting book, we can also use it as practice for numbers and quantities. I love how children scare the spooky characters which is wonderful for any child who finds Halloween a bit scary or struggles with fears of monsters. As for the rhyme it is superb, having a great rhythm that makes you want to clap along. The last line is repetitive and so much fun for little ones to join in and call. GREAT Halloween Book! My two boys, ages 2 and 3, are so enjoying Haunted Party! We got it the 1st of October and they have requested it every night since! We love finding something new in it every time. The rhyming text is rhythmic and easy to read. My boys are learning about sounds through the alliteration too! So cool. And the illustrations are wonderful and detailed. I just love the humorous details. The author has thought of everything! The ghost host is constantly cleaning up after his guests and serving them food, and it makes me laugh out loud every time I se. J. Rouse said At the haunted house of the ghost.
