Samurai Scarecrow: A Very Ninja Halloween

48 pp. | Simon | July, 2018 | Trade ISBN 978-1-4814-3059-3 $17.99 | Ebook ISBN 978-1-4814-3060-9
(2) K-3 In young ninja Yukio's second holiday-themed adventure (Samurai Santa), doting little sis Kashi annoyingly emulates all of his Halloween trick-or-treating preparations; her copycat costume is the final straw. But then Kashi cleverly invokes Yukio's spooky urban legend about Samurai Scarecrow to get some well-deserved respect. Thoughtful text design enhances the spare, funny narrative. Digital illustrations in a limited orange-and-purple palette capture the siblings' relatable range of emotions.
