Spooky Pookie (Little Pookie)

My toddler son and I LOVE all of Sandra Boynton’s books (especially Moo, Baa, La La La) and this is another great one for our growing collection! He’s 16-months-old and I’ve been trying to get him familiar with and excited about Halloween. Even though there’s a pandemic this year and we won’t be going door-to-door, he still has a costume and will be trick or treating at home. This is a great book to read before naps or bedtime. The pages are illustrated beautifully and have nice bright colors that keep his attention. It’s also super durable which is great because he wants to “help” turn the pages as we read it. I actually changed the words for the “dragon” costume to “dinosaur” because it sure looks like a green dino 🦖 & he’s obsessed with them. That’s what I love about simply-worded books like this... it’s easy to create your own dialogue!! While it’s a short board book, I think the story is a little longer than some of the other books by the same author. Not by much, but it’s definitely longer than Moo, Baa, La La La or The Going To Bed Book.Even though it’s a Spookie Pookie there’s nothing frightening about this story. His favorite thing to do is point out the pig and pumpkins!! We’ll be reading this year-round I'm sure! Highly recommended for all toddlers and families of young kiddos. Plus you can’t beat the price!!!! Under $4!!Happy Halloween! 🎃 👻

This is a lovely board book about a little pig trying to decide what he will be for Halloween. This is a fun short story written in rhythm and rhyme, with adorable illustrations. It is sure to be a favorite for toddlers and young children. You really can't go wrong with Sandra Boynton books! My kids and now my grandkids love them.

Bought for my daughter’s first Halloween. Very cute

Guests were asked to bring a child’s book rather than a card on our gifts. I bought this one, because it was October and it was a cute story and great introduction to the holiday, when the child is old enough to understand. The expectant mom was so excited because she loves the holiday and can’t wait to take her child Trick or Treat”ing”!

Cute, fun story and my kiddo loves it. Very festive for the holiday. A nice short read. Another well done book.

My toddler reaches for this book all year long.

My 18 month old grandson loves for me to read books to him. We both enjoy Sandra Boynton books

This is such a cute story. Quick read for the littles. Nice quality board book. And less expensive than buying in person at the bookstore.
