Gr 1-2 -In each predictable offering, Gus and his pal Bean match wits with Billy, their nemesis. Cushman's bright, cheerful illustrations illuminate the contrived texts. Readers will find more inspiration in Claudia Mills's "Gus and Grandpa and the Halloween Costume" (Farrar, 2002) and more fun in Kate Spohn's "Turtle and Snake's Spooky Halloween" (2002) and "Turtle and Snake's Valentine's Day" (2003, both Viking)." -Laura Scott, Farmington Community Library, MI"
