The Marshals do it again

"Space Case" is a wonderful book for kids and adults alike. It is just as good at Easter as Halloween. Our older kids were huge fans and now our grand children love it too. I love the dad's response when he lets the trick or treaters in the house. Any book by the Marshals or Harry Allard is a delight. I wish they were all in print.

Still great

I had all but forgotten about this gem from my childhood when I saw it sitting on the Halloween display at the library where I work. That night when I read it to my daughter, the clever illustrations and the humor brought back a flood of memories from my own childhood. And when she told me that she wanted "the movie of Space Case" for her birthday, I knew it was one of those timeless treats that would carry on into her memories when she's a mother.Marshall's subtle brand of humor, paired with the charming illstrations makes this a great non-spooky choice for Halloween reads.

What a treat!

This book is a real treat! The humor can appeal to the older kids, while the cute Halloween story can appeal to a younger age. 'It came from outerspace' begins the story and as this thing tries to make friends with cows and chickens and learns to trick or treat a cute story unfolds. The pictures are funny. I particularly like the father who lets them in the house after they have been out trick or treating (very funny) and the costumes that everyone wears are great! It's adorable and it came from outerspace and it should be on your bookshelves.

Trick or Treat - this is a treat!

"It came from outer space." Luckily it arrived on Halloween. While most of the natives were unfriendly (a cow and a chicken), the thing manged to find some friendly aliens out trick or treating. Buddy McGee takes the thing home only to discover that it is from outer space. He quickly makes friends with the thing and takes him to school. Will the thing stay with Buddy forever?Marshall has done it again with a wonderful story accompanied by droll illustrations. The beauty of this Halloween tale is its appeal to adults and children alike. This is a standard in my Halloween read aloud bag. It can be used from K to 5th grade with great results.
