More than anything, Dragon wants to be scary for Halloween. But "scary" is barely in his sweet blue nature. In these three new easy-to-read tales, Dragon's shenanigans will be met with loving laughter as Dav Pilkey's warm story cascades with childhood feelings and pictures them wittily. Full-color illustrations.

From School Library Journal:

Kindergarten-Grade 2-This fifth book about Dragon is just right for beginning readers who want to be scared, but not too scared. In three episodes, Dragon cleverly turns six small, unimposing pumpkins into a tall, frightening jack-o-lantern; accidentally wears the most fearsome costume at a Halloween party; and is frightened by his own moaning and groaning hungry stomach as he walks home through a dark forest. Pilkey's bright, bold watercolors complement and visually enhance the text. Young readers will laugh out loud as they enjoy this scary Halloween from a safe vantage point. A nice, reassuring companion to Van Leeuwen's Oliver & Amanda's Halloween (Dial, 1992).
