Good Halloween Book

Yes, there is a moral to the story, but mostly my boys just enjoyed it because it was a fun Halloween story. It's one that's been requested by both of them over and over which is a real stamp of approval! Actually, I think this was the book that got each of them interested in the Berenstain Bears - and they're five years apart so each at a different point in time. Don't buy this one for the moral to the story; buy it because it's fun!

Two boys' review: Good read before you trick or treat

The book's message, "appearances can be quite deceiving," focuses on a spooky, old house with an elderly woman named Miz MGrizz. The little bears learn to not judge people unkindly by their appearance. This is a tricky message as so much of the parental advice prior to Halloween is for kids to be on their guard. The book does reinforce some great Halloween safety messages: 1. Stay in your own neighborhood. 2. Don't eat the treats until you get home and Mama Bear inspects them. I also recommend these other Berenstain Bears' books: The Berenstain Bears and the Trouble with Chores The Berenstain Bears Forget Their MannersThe Berenstain Bears Get in a Fight The Berenstain Bears and Too Much TV The Berenstain Bears Learn About Strangers

Trick Or Treat

My 5 year old loved this book, and it's got a positive message too that he goes around saying sometimes. Anybook that can promote fun and safety at Halloween as well as a good message is a great book to share with your children.

Good Childrens Book

The Berenstain Bears "Trick or Treat" is a good book for the 1st time readers. It tells the story of Brother and Sister on Halloween night. They are scarred to go to Miz McGrizz's house because they think she is a witch. They end up going there trying to cuase trouble but are suprised when they find out that she is a very nice person.

It's Grinch Night in Bear Country...

Brother & Sister go trick-or-treating with Fred & Lizzy. They plan to skip Miz Mcgriss' house, because they think she's Gruntilda from Banjo-Kazooie. Hey wait! N64 wasn't around by then! In other words, Too-Tall is gonna teepee the house.Why does Mcgriss always have a mad look on her face? She had it in this book, and she continued to have it in "Prize Pumpkin"!
