But it is not too late for you to pick up Five Silly Ghosts for your special witch, ghost, pirate, alien, princess, or goblin! Five Silly Ghosts is a little board book with the same “five little ghost” story (counting, rhyming and having fun) that we have seen before. There is nothing new for the person who knows this rhyme. However, it is still great for the toddler set. This story is a classic tale and truly is timeless. And with Hilli Kushnir’s illustrations the fun never ends with their bright colors and just the right amount of spooky.

 

Each of the die-cut page hints at the next surprise and none will give you any tricks! Keep peek-a-booing through each page to get to the end. The ghosts float through finding different goodies as they go along one dark and (not so) spooky Halloween night. The colors, glittery sparkles and simple text will make this the perfect read to help your little munching monster come down off the sugar high they have after trick-or-treating! Kushnir’s signature innocent style with their illustrations are a tidbit to nibble on. They are just the right amount of detail to keep you entertained without being overwhelming.

 

You will find yourself getting into reading this delightful treasure. You will be making ghostly sounds and will laugh out loud. Give this treat to your toddler and have fun all year round!
