🎨 How to color it

Try soft white or pale lavender for the three ghosts, bright pumpkin orange for the jack-o’-lantern, yellow for the crescent moon and stars, and brown for the little bare trees. Use chunky crayons for the pumpkin’s big sections and don’t worry if color hops over the thick black lines. For a cozy twist, make each ghost’s cheeks a different tiny color—pink, peach, and sky blue.

Under a soft moon, Boo patted his hollow log. “Peek, wave, home!” he whispered, inventing a game. He wanted two friends to play.

Swish-swish, Boo floated over tickly grass to the big pumpkin. A dry twig poked his tail. Ouch! He almost turned back.

Then two ghosts popped up. “Peek!” said one. “Wave!” said Boo. They made room right beside the pumpkin stem. Boo felt warm as candlelight. Next time you see those three happy ghosts, can you find Boo’s just-right spot?
