Illustrated by
Sue Truesdell.
Rhyming text describes an array of hats one might see on Halloween night, worn by children on their way to a party: "Floppy hats and sloppy hats, / silly hats and frilly hats. / Flowered hats for bees to buzz in, / fussy hats from someone's cousin." This simple story is fast paced, and the cartoon watercolor illustrations are cheerful and bustling with energy.
