Overview

In these oversize board books, every page is bursting with life-and tons to discover! Children as young as age 2 have a blast pointing out recognizable things-a jack-o'-lantern, a black cat, a ghost in the window-while older kids can follow the star characters through all kinds of bustling Halloween scenes. Wimmelbooks are virtually instruction-free, inviting kids to make their own way through the busy Wimmelworld they encounter-and to craft their own stories. First, they're introduced to a unique cast of characters who are hidden in plain sight on the pages that follow. As children seek them out, each character's storyline unfolds, but it's up to kids to interpret the scenes and create stories they think fit. It's hours upon hours of fun-and an effortless introduction to literacy, to boot. My Big Wimmelbook®-Happy Halloween! overflows with seasonal spirit, helping kids sharpen their observation skills while delighting in every spooky, silly detail. Whether they're spotting trick-or-treaters, witches on broomsticks, or a parade of playful ghosts, young readers will love discovering all the Halloween magic hiding in this lively world. About Wimmelbooks Wimmelbooks originated in Germany decades ago and have become a sensation with children (and adults!) worldwide. My Big Wimmelbooks® is the first-ever English-language wimmelbook series. Its books have been praised as ""lively . . . and abounding with humor and detail"" (WSJ) and likely to""make any parent's heart sing"" (NYT).
