Horrible Harry at Halloween

53 pp. | Viking | September, 2000 | Trade ISBN 0-670-88864-8 $$13.99
(4) 1-3 Illustrated by Frank Remkiewicz. Instead of wearing the scariest costume for Halloween, third-grader Harry dresses up as Sergeant Joe Friday of Dragnet fame. Acting like the deadpan detective, Harry solves a classroom mystery, but the humor will be lost on young readers, who won't be familiar with the 1960s TV character. This isn't one of the stronger books in the series, though the story is easy to read, and the frequent pen-and-ink drawings are humorous.
