This interactive Halloween book for children ages 2-5 features lift-the-flap pages and plush cat-ear-shaped fabric for children to explore.
It’s Halloween, but where is Black Cat? Is she trick-or-treating? Hiding in the dark? Or maybe stirring a cauldron?
Children will meet a variety of adorable Halloween friends in this cute board book, which features lift-the-flap pages and plush cat-ear-shaped fabric for children to touch that figures into the text on each spread.
Toddler-PreS–It’s Halloween, but where is Black Cat? A pair of black, fluffy ears and lift-the-flap pages guide readers through the search. Is Black Cat hiding behind a spiderweb, or is she trick-or-treating? Each reveal brings readers closer to Black Cat, while a helpful spider offers cute asides. The playful verse has charming Halloween references to spooky forests, bats, and witches: “In the darkness of the night,/ spooky friends are out of sight.” Adorable illustrations add a touch of fun, and the reveals match up with the plush cat ears, adding delight to each discovery. VERDICT A playful Halloween book offering a sensory treat that will do well in board book collections.--School Library Journal
