Book Review- Picture Book

A Flip-The-Flap Book. "Corduroy's Halloween." Based on the Corduroy bear character by Don Freeman. Story by B.G. Hennessy. Pictures by Lisa McCue. For those of you parents who have two to five year olds this is a fun book. As a kid I always liked books where you could flip up a flap and there would be something underneath. Unlike some other books this book isn't stingy about the amount of flaps they use. The story is cute and bold colors are used throughout the pictures. The story features a little toy bear named Corduroy who wears corduroy overalls. In this book Corduroy and his stuffed animal friends celebrate Halloween. They pick pumpkins from a pumpkin patch, partake in a window-painting contest, go Trick-or-Treating, and have a Halloween party.
