In another successful entry in this series, Grandpa helps Gus find the perfect Halloween costume, showing once again that he understands Gus better than Gus's own parents do. Illustrations reflecting Gus's many emotions, from his longing for a store-bought costume to his pride in wearing his dad's old one, support Mills's perceptive portrayals of modern family life and Gus and Grandpa's loving relationship.
