A Halloween costume with consequences

Halloween poses an unusual costume problem for Heidi Heckelbeck: she is already a witch, and she dislikes seeing others pretend to be one. When Melanie Maplethorpe chooses a witch costume, Heidi dresses as Melanie in response. Her imitation soon goes beyond a costume and upsets her friends. The conflict brings together Heidi’s feelings about how witches are portrayed and the consequences of acting like someone else. Set in Brewster, this illustrated chapter book uses a Halloween disagreement to explore identity, friendship, and the difference between dressing up and making fun of someone.
