In a Dark, Dark House

. Grosset & Dunlap, $4.99 (1pp) ISBN 978-0-448-42818-5

Three not-so-scary hand-size board books boast die-cut covers. In a Dark, Dark House, shaped like a haunted mansion, has a comic surprise ending; with its cover shaped like a jack-o'-lantern, Trick or Treat? hails the holiday's confections; while Vampire's Halloween, shaped like the caped villain himself, reveals the bloodsucker's softer side. John Bianchi illustrated all three.
