This is a great Halloween book. My children -boy and girl-- both enjoy it, and they ask for it to be read at various times throughout the year. One of the things that draws them back to the book is the familiarity of all the classic activities Franklin and his buddies engage in. Everything from talk about what everyone wants to dress up as, to how many goodies they plan to acquire. In addition, even though my kids have never bobbed for apples, they enjoy hearing about it.The other thing my children like about the book is that there are several 'mysteries' woven into the plot. The fact that they already know the answers doesn't seem to keep them from enjoying the story one bit.Now, as a mom I happen to have my own preferences. In particular I like how the dilemma of Bear's untimely illness is solved. You see, he gets a bad cold and isn't able to attend the cool school party nor go out trick-or-treating. How Bear's friends come through for him is simply heart warming.Four Stars ::: The usual nice Franklin artwork. Good Read-Aloud. The Accelerated Reading designation for "Franklin's Halloween" is 2.7, which means that it is generally suited for 2nd Graders in the 7th month of school.Note on AR designation: The AR description is a general "guide" that rates books on a relative scale of difficulty. Children can certainly read at levels above or below their group range, so that this number should only be used as a aid to help choose books that are appropriate and not frustrating.Pam T~
A fun Halloween classic in my house. My nine year-old girl still enjoys when I read this book to her. My wife and I both teach at the elementary level so any opportunity to read fun stories such as these that teach kids about the nuances of friendship is dear to our hearts!The illustrations are fun and vividly capture the spirit of the Halloween season!This was the Kindle version of the book and I was concerned it would be diminished, but it wasn't. A wonderful surprise!
This is a cute story and my kids loved it. However the digital edition is done poorly. Large sections of white where the words were on the pictures and blurred sections. One page even had the text left on it. :/
Franklin is a little cutie and he has lots of nice friends. They are all excited that Halloween is coming and they are making big plans. The bright colored, detailed illustrations of the quaint woodland world where they live are brimming with wholesome, good-natured fun. This is a good book for introducing Halloween to little ones so that they will not be unnerved by mysterious ghouls who'll come knocking on their doors on Halloween. It shows Franklin and friends getting their costumes ready for a party, painting, cutting and pasting decorations, bobbing for apples, playing a pumpkin toss game, and trick-or-treating in their neighborhood. They're a little spooked when they visit a make-believe haunted house but it turns out to be fun and they solve a mystery! They pool some of their goodies to deliver to their friend who is ill and can't go out trick-or-treating. It also shows little Franklin getting carried home in the arms of Daddy with Mommy walking along beside. It's heart-warming and has enough action to hold a little one's attention so they can become familiar with common Halloween disguises. It's easy to see from the pictures that Franklin is Franklinstein, Fox is clearly the mummy, Skunk is Dracula, and Goose is a wolf. Our friends dress up but we know it's still them underneath the make-up and masks. Franklin is a lot of fun at Halloween. Enjoy!
We love Franklin books (and videos) My sons are 3years & 9 months. Every night we read at least one Franklin story. we'd read them all if it was up to them. I like the stories because they are interesting, yet quick. They like the colorful pictures, and now that he is older,the actual story that goes with them. He thinks about it, asks questions, & relates the topic to our day. This is a special favorite this time of year. When we get to the haunted house part, my 3 year old puts his fingers in his ears & squints from one eye & loves every minute of it.
Released again, in a digital format, Franklin's Halloween is a tale that will not disappoint your little ones. My preschooler is three. She loved this book. The graphics were wonderful and the story was classic Franklin.We loved reading about Franklin picking his Halloween costume and following him to a Halloween party with his friends and family. All of our favorites were included - Beaver, Fox, and even Bear (although we later learn Bear was sick!) My little one loved the Haunted House scene and enjoyed picking out the different details in illustrations. She did, however, point out that the party was missing a pinata. Maybe next time?
My son came home from school sick today. I thought he might like to cuddle up with mom and read a story. That always seems to help a little.We read Franklin's Halloween. I had downloaded it from netgalley and wanted to read it with my eight year old. I love to see what children think. I know what I like in a children's story: great pictures, humor, a lesson, phonetics....etc. Kids mostly want a good story and to see the pictures. I asked him what he thought and he said it was good. I asked him if other kids would like this book and he said "yes." Ok, no elaboration here, but what can I expect? He's laying in his bed with a bowl close by. He did say that his favorite part was they mysterious ghost.My thoughts are that this book is really cute. I love Franklin. The stories are always well illustrated and have a solid plot. Franklin's dilemma was what to be for Halloween. The fun part was when there was a mystery concerning a ghost. At the end everyone is happy and had a great Halloween. Cute and sweet book that has all of the key elements of a good story. Not too scarey for little ones either.I definitely recommend this book to sit and cuddle with your favorite trick-or-treater.
