Illustrated by
Cyd Moore.
As Stinky Face and his mom put on their Halloween costumes, he asks endless questions about what could go wrong during trick-or-treating. Mama patiently reassures her little one on all counts, and off they go. The boy's worries are imaginative, though the repeated "But, Mama, but Mama" grows tedious. Energetic illustrations portray a friendly neighborhood that goes all out for Halloween.
