K-Gr 2-After a nightmare about a giant mouse eating "the last bit of chocolate in the whole world," Minnie grabs Moo and the two silly cows fall out of bed, causing it to start to roll away. They run after it and jump on, gathering other animals on the way down the hill. They finally come to a stop in town, where Moo realizes that it is Halloween night. The animals do all sorts of tricks in order to get chocolate treats, and Minnie goes home contented and ready to sleep. Fans of these two bovines will not be disappointed as they embark on this hilarious trek. Humorous color illustrations accompany the text, helping to make this holiday book a delight to read any day of the year.-Anne Knickerbocker, formerly at Cedar Brook Elementary School, Houston, TX (c) Copyright 2010.

Denys Cazet's moovelous bovine duo make hay on Halloween in the I Can Read book Minnie and Moo: The Night of the Living Bed. The fun begins when Minnie dreams that a giant mouse has eaten the last bit of chocolate left in the world, and continues as she, Moo and their barnyard friends master the ins and outs of trick-or-treating.
