Corduroy is throwing a Halloween party. There will be a jack o'lantern to carve, apples to bob for, and trick or treating after. There is exactly one unsolved problem, and it is the one every four year old in October understands completely: what is he going to be?

A warm, unspooky Halloween read aloud for the age when the holiday is still all costume and candy and no scares. Eight by eight paperback, thirty two pages, light enough to live in a school bag and cheap enough to buy without thinking about it.
