Summary: A Halloween Crack-up!
Comment: It doesn't matter how many children I read this to, it always cracks me up. I mean, when you read about a dachshund named Oscar, you know you're on a roll...hey, was that a pun? This story has lots of wordplay. It's a Halloween tale, or is that tail, about a well-loved dachshund kid whose mother dresses him up in a costume that gets him ridiculed by the other dog kids. His trick-or-treat adventures will have you howling with laughter and in the end everybody including poor Oscar likes his silly costume. The cartoon-like illustrations are clever and subtle so make sure you and your youngsters take time to enjoy them and please check out the classroom scene...it's a scream. This book is so much fun with its bright colors and zany text you just can't help but love it.

Summary: Witty fun for playful souls
Comment: I don't have kids and I'm well beyond the target age group for this book. I do think sausage dogs are adorable, though, and thus received this as a Halloween present.

The illustrations are cute, the story is fun, and the puns are hilarious. The sausage dog is named, of course, Oscar; scrutinizing the family mailbox reveals their last name to be Meyer. When Oscar shows up in his Halloween costume (a hot dog on a bun), the book remarks that he looked "quite frank."

A few minutes of laughing and a smile on your face for six bucks? Can't beat that!

Summary: The Hallo-Wiener
Comment: The Hallo-Wiener is a story about a wiener shaped dog that is always teased because of his looks. When Halloween rolls around Oscar can't wait till he gets to go out. When he sees the costume his mom made for him he almost killed himself. Embarrassed and all, Oscar goes out and does something his buddies will never forget. This book teaches kids not to judge people of their appearance and a true friend is always there. This book is good for the age of 1-100. Personally I thought it was a fantastic book.
