This is a great story for the spooky Halloween season and young children will no doubt love. It’s a bit young for my daughter who’s 7 but she still enjoyed it. It’s a great way to introduce your kids Halloween and fuel their excitement for Halloween. The book is very engaging helped but the beautiful illustrations. I loved that despite my daughters age she giggled throughout and in my book if a book can do that it’s a hit. This is a fantastic addition to the series, whether you are new to the series or not you won’t be disappointed. I would recommend this book to family and friends with kids, rhyming and hunting for ghosts what more do kids want in a book.

A fun journey story with lovely illustrations. Great fun for little ones with flaps to reveal spookyness along the way. Great for Early Years.

I received an advance reader copy of this book to read in exchange for an honest review via netgalley and the publishers.

We're Going on a Ghost Hunt is another addition to this bunny series of children's picture books and didn't disappoint. The rhyming follows the other books in the series and is repetitive, catchy, and fun, and the illustrations are just adorable! I'm going to get this series for my grandbaby, who's three as she loves counting and rhymes and finding things in books, and the physical copy should be even better with the lift-the-flaps addition within it.

Well, without sounding ungrateful all the other publishers I know to ask for reviews of digital lift-the-flap books still let you see what's under the flaps. This isn't bad, from what I could gather, but the surprises will have to remain just that, just as the text will remain only half-rhymed and the story will continue to do just the bare minimum. This will be welcome as a borrow, but – especially as it's going to be left on a shelf eleven months of the year – not worth the purchase.

Thank you to NetGalley and publishers for the ebook of We're Going On A Ghost Hunt.

My 4 year old loves the books by Martha Mumford and we have a collection at home.
This one was no exception, he loved it.
I personally love the way these are written in the same format as "we're going on a bear hunt" as they're so easy to get into the rhythm and reading them makes them so fun.
The illustrations are so adorable and my little boy loves the rabbits.
This one is another hit that I will be buying in paperback to add to his collection

What a delightful story for your youngsters during those grumpy autumnal evenings. The story is simple to follow meaning it will appeal to toddlers and preschoolers alike.

The illustrations are exquisite with so much attention to detail, I have gone through the book a few times and notices different things each time (such as the lizard in the witches home).

I have really enjoyed having a look at this beautifully illustrated story book and look forward to reading other similar publications.

I thought that this book was fab – lots of fun and some lovely illustrations!

The book was very easy to read and follow and my 5 year old daughter read the book to me with no issues, she enjoyed the interaction and the repetitive nature meant she knew what was coming and she really got in to the story telling side which was lovely as a mum to see

I love the way that the stories are told in this series and again the illustrations in this one are outstanding, they bring the work to life and they are just beautiful

It is another lovely addition to this series and it is 5 stars from me!

Thank you so much to Bloomsbury Publishing and Netgalley for the ebook to read and review.

The bunnies are going on a ghost hunt, it’s Halloween so together they go in search of ghosts in this rhyming, repetitive fun flip-flap book.

This was adorable and I loved it, I love these kind of books for young children, they are always so fun as they can follow it really easily, they have fun looking at the illustrations, they can learn the story quickly as it repeats and it is rhyming.

The bunnies are being really brave searching for ghosts at night time on Halloween. The book gives you the fun element of lifting flaps and searching for them, having to count how many you see on their adventure. Another absolutely incredible fun thing for young children to enjoy about it. For me personally I was reading it as an ebook so didn’t get the fun lift flaps but could see exactly where they would be and enjoyed it all the same, knowing that a hidden ghost would be behind them.

It’s illustrated really beautifully, the bunnies all looked so cute in their costumes, the scenery was so perfectly created to build up the atmosphere, the flip-flaps were obvious and were so fun to see where that element would be.

This is super cute and a really perfect Halloween read, it’s spooky, but fun, it got little scary elements but is harmless and just adorable. I really thoroughly enjoyed reading it and I know that others will too, so if you have really young children they will love this book.

This was a fun read for me my little one. With it being online tho we lost a bit of the magic from the lift the flaps.
It will definitely be a favourite at Halloween tho and will look out for the physical copy.
