Hallowe'en
'Hallowe'en' Summary
Hallowe'en by John Kendrick Bangs is a collection of 21 poems that capture the spirit of the holiday. Bangs's poems are full of wit, humor, and nostalgia. They evoke the sights, sounds, and smells of Halloween, from the spooky to the whimsical. In one poem, Bangs describes a group of children trick-or-treating, their costumes a mix of the traditional and the imaginative. In another, he paints a picture of a bonfire burning on a cold Halloween night, its flames casting a warm glow on the faces of those gathered around it. Bangs also explores the more supernatural side of Halloween, with poems about ghosts, witches, and other creatures of the night. But even in these poems, Bangs's playful and humorous style keeps the tone lighthearted. Hallowe'en is a delightful read for Halloween enthusiasts of all ages.Book Details
