These days, Halloween is the most popular holiday next to Christmas. At its heart are family and friends having fun together--which is what this book is all about. In this cornucopia of creative Halloween ideas, simple crafts, tasty treats, and ghoulish good times abound. From delicious "one cauldron" dinners such as creamy pumpkin soup to luscious devil's food cake and black cat cookies, here are recipes ideal for entertaining adults and children alike, both in the kitchen and at the table. And then there are the crafts. Kid-friendly projects such as trick-or-treat bags, spooky lanterns, and tissue ghosts, and easy ideas for beautiful centerpieces, place mats, and name cards keep everyone from the tots on up busy and happy. Filled with clever projects and delicious snacks, and illustrated throughout with colorful photographs, Halloween Treats will keep the whole family (and friends of all ages) entertained. Happy Halloween!

Summary: Fun book
Comment: I've collected a lot of Halloween books over the years, and some of them have been real duds. I was relieved this was not one of those. The pics are cozy, there are some fun decorating ideas,and I found the recipes creative and different. I highly recommend both the book and the seller.

Summary: Cute
Comment: This book is cute and has some fun ideas but not all the items have pictures and there is a lot of "adult" oriented food in there which is not why I bought it. A few cute ideas but I suggest buying it used to get your moneys worth.

Summary: Great Pictures, Good Recipes, Fun Ideas
Comment: I have had this book for sometime now, and I always break it out for for my halloween parties. The pumpkin curry soup recipe is sooo yummy, and the pictures and crafts are inpiring! If you are in the 20-35 year old set, I would reccomend this book!

Summary: More trick than treat
Comment: Some of the ideas were cute and worth trying. But, for the most part, it is not worth the money. I loved the pictures, which were the best part of the book. I plan on trying some of the ideas, but depending on the age of your children, it's not really a family oriented book. I lost interest very rapidly, as did my 4 and 7 year olds.

Summary: great photos, inspiring ideas
Comment: It was so hot here in AZ this fall, I needed a jumpstart to get into the Halloween spirit. This was just the book. Great photos and seasonal recipes made me run out to buy sweet potatoes for making the baked chips! I envisioned keeping them on hand for lunches and snacks, but they were gone in a day. The black cats were cute, too, but we all suffered with black tongues after the fact. Plenty of other cute ideas for little ones. If you want Julia Child, don't buy this book; but if you want a holiday read, with great pictures and some nice recipes, find a notch on your bookshelf for this one.
