Moonlight the Halloween Cat

HarperCollins Publishers, 2003. Picture Book.
Moonlight, a cheerful black cat, loves the night, but she especially loves Halloween night. She sneaks quietly through the neighborhood to see all of her favorite Halloween sights: smiling jack-o-lanterns, cozy straw men sitting on porches, and happy children trick or treating. She loves the big yellow moon and the owls and raccoons that come out at in the dark. After making her rounds, she returns home to a surprise Halloween treat. This is an excellent book to celebrate the Halloween season without anything scary; just the warm fuzzies of Fall.
