Halloween is right around the corner and we have a lot going on. We will be participating in Northampton's kid friendly Trick or Treat event on 10/31 from 12-5. Stop by and show off your little ghost or goblin and pick up a treat!
If you're in need of some last minute costume help, feel free to check out the selection of wands, wings and capes we have in stock!
In addition to a variety of costume accessories, we also have a selection of Halloween themed books on display. If you're looking to put a little silly fright into your night, pick up one of these books today!
Big Scary Monster, by Thomas Docherty is a wonderful read about a misunderstood monster who learns what it means to be scared. This engaging tale is brought to life with wonderful watercolor illustrations that will captivate readers, both young and old!
Shadow, by Suzy Lee, is a book that needs to be seen to be believed. Using creative artistic methods, Suzy Lee is able to create a whole new world out of the sparsely worded pages of this book. This book is wonderful for all ages, and you'll appreciate how the stunning, simplistic visuals draw you in.
From one of our favorite series comes this wonderful Halloween treat. Jon Muth's Zen Ghost is a unique twist on the traditional ghost story, using the familiar Stillwater the panda as storyteller. Both the story and the gorgeous ink and watercolor illustrations will captivate you and hold your attention throughout the entire story.
Go Away, Big Green Monster! by Ed Emberley is a fun, silly and wonderful read-a-long book. The bright, bold illustrations give us peek after peek of what perhaps might be a big green monster and helps children take the fear away from the concept of monsters.
Bruce Eric Kaplan's book, Monsters Eat Whiny Children, is a great read for those looking for something with a bit of off beat humor. Told in a playful, fanciful way, this book is more fun than fearful as it tells the tale of what happens when the terribly whiny Henry and Eve are plucked up by two monsters looking to make dinner out of them. A great read-a-long sure to put a smile on the face of even the whinest of monsters!
