From the award-winning author and illustrator team of Doreen Cronin and Betsy Lewin of the popular Click, Clack, Moo series comes, Click, Clack, Boo!: A Tricky Treat, a Halloween adventure, featuring our familiar exasperated Farmer Brown, and his clever group of farm animals.
As our tale beings, Farmer Brown is just not feeling in the Halloween spirit this year. All the creepy sounds, the ghoulishly eerie decorations... it's all way too spooky for him to handle. So, he decides to leave a bowl filled to the brim with candy on his front porch, and shuts his door with the hopes that the night will quickly pass by.
But, as we know from being huge fans of Cronin and Lewin's Caldecott Honor Book that started it all, Click, Clack, Moo: Cows That Type, Farmer Brown's barnyard animals have other things in mind that are destined to make his wishful hopes for a peaceful eve go completely astray!
Once again, Lewin's watercolor illustrations are vivid and expressively filled with great detail which compliment Cronin's simple, yet cute prose. Click, Clack, Boo!: A Tricky Treat has just the right balance of spooky and silly that is sure to delight your little ones and help get them into the spirit!
