Herbert's First Halloween

(3) PS Illustrated by Steven Henry. In this low-key father-son story, pig youngster Herbert is "not sure about Halloween," but his father loves it. Dad's excitement quickly spreads to son as together they decide on and make Herbert's costume (tiger), carve a pumpkin ("They named it Jack"), and go trick-or-treating. Henry's digital illustrations capture sweet moments of this bonding experience and play up the un-spooky aspects of Halloween.
