About this picture
A big ghost in a cozy nightcap settles into a chair to read a bedtime story, while three much smaller ghosts snuggle in close to listen. It's one of the gentlest, least spooky pages in the whole Halloween set, more of a cozy nighttime scene than anything else. With four ghost shapes but very few other details, it's an easy, fast page that still lets a colorist pick four different shades to tell the ghosts apart.

Coloring ideas
- Keep the reading ghost and the three little ghosts around it all similar shades of white or pale color so they read as a family.
- Give the nightcap a cozy contrasting color, like a soft blue or red, to stand out against the ghost's body.
- Color the book's moon and star illustrations a warm yellow so they catch the eye in the middle of the page.
- Use a warm brown or muted color for the armchair so it feels comfortable and grounding behind all the ghosts.
Learning and creativity connection
A calm bedtime scene like this one is a good match for a slower, more careful coloring pace - a nice opportunity to practice patience and staying within the lines without rushing.
