HALLOWEEN

Do you think Halloween is entertaining? Halloween is a big festival and American
people have lots of fun on that day. I think it is the best festival in the world.

To begin with, people wear scary black costumes. For example, girls usually wear
witch costumes. Second, children eat lots of candies. Children play trick or treat, and
winner takes candies. Last, there are scary decorations in the houses. Families carve
pumpkins and put in front of their houses to scare children. To sum, it is a really fun
festival, because people wear costumes, children eat candies, and you can see
great decorations. I hope I can celebrate Halloween in America one day.
