In this lively, cumulative counting book, they’re joined by a plump pumpkin, a fuzzy bunny, a friendly pirate, a pink princess, and more costumed characters, until ten trick-or-treaters are tiptoeing up to a dark, scary house. And what would happen if . . . a monster opened the door? Bright illustrations set off the simple rhythms of this Halloween story, just waiting to be completed with a page full of stickers.
