Pros

The halloween tree is one of ray bradbury's most popular works. The story is full of magical prose and wonderful illustration.

This particular version of the audio book is the unabridged reading of the book itself. No other book fills me with such nostalgic warmth as it does.

Masterfully written, the words draw the reader into the story and the boys bring it to life. Brings to mind what it meant to be a kid. The moment is charming and i am sure i completely missed it as a child. Tolkien, a hobbit.

The mexican feast is as much a celebration as a shiver. Around back is a gigantic tree with hundreds of candles and pumpkins decorating it. It’s an artful history lesson in the origins of halloween.

Cons

Bradbury's style is repetitive and twee with a cloying atmosphere of americana. It reads like a poetic history lesson for 3rd graders.

It's factually inaccurate in its description of history. It's full of overwrought descriptions of scenes. Even the main characters are one-dimensional cardboard cutouts.
