Trick or Treat?

40 pp. | Simon | September, 2002 | Trade ISBN 0-689-84968-0 $$14.95
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Paul Meisel. When a boy goes trick-or-treating in his apartment building, Magic Merlin casts a backwards spell, so that the names of the treats are switched around. Caramel Pops become Paramel Cops, Licorice Twists become Twicorice Lists, and Peanut Cups become Ceanut Pups. The story is slight, but it's amusing to figure out the switches and observe how Meisel portrays them in his cheery illustrations.
