    This book regularly makes it into our nightly rotation. The idea of selling halloween candy so that she can buy something else greatly appeals to my daughter. I just wish the parents were included in the Max and Ruby series. I have an older daughter and younger son and don’t want to encourage the bossy older sister tendencies.
