Bella's Brave Little Boo! — Digital Picture Book (PDF) | A Not-Scary Halloween Story for Toddlers

Is Halloween a little too big for your little one? Bella knows the feeling.

Bella is a golden retriever puppy with a red cape and a very small boo. On Halloween night a tall shadow climbs the fence, the porch next door is LOUD, an orange bucket holds something strange, and a big green monster comes crunching down the sidewalk. Each time, Bella does what Mama taught her: big breath in, little boo out. And each time, the scary thing turns out to be a mouse with a flashlight, a quiet bush, a pumpkin biscuit, or a neighbor with a high five.

Why parents and teachers love it

• A breathing cue your child can actually use: "Big breath in, little boo out" works at the door on Halloween and at bedtime in March.
• Gently scary, never frightening: every worry has a friendly answer on the very next page.
• Ends at bedtime, with a sleeping puppy and a quiet house.
• Classic mid-century art in plum, moon-cream, and pumpkin orange.
