Puttin' On The Ritz! Peppa Pig and the Halloween Costume by Neville Astley

"I LOVE TRICK-OR-TREATING" SAYS PIPPA.

"AND JACK O' LANTERNS.

AND I LOVE DRESSING UP!"

Ah, that's the pressing, ever-present problem! What to wear?

To scare or not to scare. That is the question.

Peppi inspects the contents of the family costume box.

"I KNOW! I WILL BE A PIRATE!"

"BUT I'M GOING TO BE A PIRATE!" DECLARES DANNY DOG.

Well, that's out, thinks Pippa. Back to the box!

A clown? Nope, Pedro Pony already has dibs on that one. A nurse, maybe? Suzy Sheep nixes that. Okay. There's always a witch with a tall, pointy hat and broom. But WAIT! Candy Cat has already called that one! Little George's suggestion is no surprise:

"DINO-SAW!"

No, no, no, and NO! None of those will do!

Peppa briefly entertains the thought of being a carrot! But Rebecca Rabbit has already claimed that costume. Of course she has.

Will Peppa Pig have a wardrobe malfunction on Halloween? Or will Peppa think outside the costume box in this latest installment in Peppa's holiday adventures? For the big reveal when it's time to hit the trick-or-treating trail, Peppa Pig and the Halloween Costume (Candlewick Press, 2018) has Peppa wearing a less-than-unconventional costume, but with some surprising accessories. Youngsters who are still undecided and dithering over what to wear for Halloween will find Peppa's dilemma familiar. Pair this one with Astley's popular Peppa's Halloween Party. (Peppa Pig: 8x8) for a Halloween duo.
