This charming picture book follows a child's exciting Halloween night, going door-to-door on nine apartment floors to gather treats. Young readers will enjoy the simple, repetitive text and the festive atmosphere as the child encounters "wacky neighbors" and collects candy. The story introduces a playful twist when Magic Merlin appears, adding a touch of magic and lighthearted mischief. It's an ideal read-aloud for preschoolers and early elementary children, subtly incorporating counting as the child moves through the floors.
A child has a wonderful time collecting treats from the wacky neighbors until Magic Merlin decides that a trick would be more fun.
