Description

In these oversize board books, every page is bursting with life--and tons to discover! Children as young as age 2 have a blast pointing out recognizable things--a jack-o'-lantern, a black cat, a ghost in the window--while older kids can follow the star characters through all kinds of bustling Halloween scenes.

Wimmelbooks are virtually instruction-free, inviting kids to make their own way through the busy Wimmelworld they encounter--and to craft their own stories. First, they're introduced to a unique cast of characters who are hidden in plain sight on the pages that follow. As children seek them out, each character's storyline unfolds, but it's up to kids to interpret the scenes and create stories they think fit. It's hours upon hours of fun--and an effortless introduction to literacy, to boot.

My Big Wimmelbook(R)--Happy Halloween! overflows with seasonal spirit, helping kids sharpen their observation skills while delighting in every spooky, silly detail. Whether they're spotting trick-or-treaters, witches on broomsticks, or a parade of playful ghosts, young readers will love discovering all the Halloween magic hiding in this lively world.

About Wimmelbooks

Wimmelbooks originated in Germany decades ago and have become a sensation with children (and adults!) worldwide. My Big Wimmelbooks(R) is the first-ever English-language wimmelbook series. Its books have been praised as "lively . . . and abounding with humor and detail" (WSJ) and likely to"make any parent's heart sing" (NYT).

Critical Reviews

An opening spread outlines particular characters and objects for readers to locate, including a couple with a selfie stick, reporters on the scene, and a pizza delivery man. . . . The spreads aren't as jam-packed as a typical Where's Waldo panorama, allowing for younger readers to spot characters and objects with ease.-- "Publishers Weekly"

The large board books in the My Big Wimmelbook series are full of lively, crowded tableaux of people and animals going about their business in different settings. [Wimmelbooks] abound with witty details to draw in younger children . . . and older toddlers will want to follow the wordless interactions that spill from one page to the next in these eventful pictures.-- "The Wall Street Journal"

You know the kid who can conjure an entire imaginary world by animating, say, the sugar packets she finds at the restaurant table? That one will thank you when you put any volume of My Big Wimmelbook in front of her. . . . Picture Richard Scarryesque, diorama-like spreads with a hint of Where's Waldo junior detective. The combination should encourage long contemplative sit-downs that will make any parent's heart sing.-- "The New York Times Book Review"

Wimmelbooks offer limitless engagement for little kids--think updated, culturally relevant versions of Where's Waldo.--Fanny Singer and Greta Caruso, The Green Spoon

With My Big Wimmelbooks, kids experience their self-efficacy as something special, which makes them proud and, in turn, activates new 'learning.' The inner motivation that comes with their desire to satisfy their curiosity is the ultimate source of ongoing learning.--Dr. Kristina Unterweger, educational psychologist
