It’s Halloween night and the ghosts are marching in!

Little ghosts go trick-or-treating by ones, twos, and up to ten in this spooky and fun-filled take on “The Ants Go Marching.” Hurrah, hurrah!

The familiar counting song is a fun read-aloud and sing-along, and children will love identifying all the costumes in the ghost march. Observant readers will also find lots of opportunities to count along as they look for ghostly silhouettes and other spooky objects hidden in the illustrations!

A perfect Halloween treat, The Ghosts Go Spooking is sure to become a favourite for repeat readings.

What people are saying:

“A group of ghosts make their way to a Halloween party, meeting a bevy of friends along the way. Bozik's lively text is a reworking of "The Ants Go Marching"  … Though the color scheme is appropriate for a Halloween romp—a giant yellow moon, deep blues and purples for the sky—there's a gentle tone that runs through this fairly tame outing, from the smiling vampire family who greet the trick-or-treating ghosts to a grinning group of bats to the fiddle-playing skeleton crew… VERDICT A solid option for those seeking a Halloween read-aloud or sing-along or an introduction to numbers and counting. “ — School Library Journal
