Bunting runs right across the top of the sheet, a balloon floats on its string, and the clown stands below in a pointed hat and a ruffled collar with a grinning carved pumpkin beside him. Not one thing on the sheet is frightening, which is deliberate: it is the Halloween page about the party, not the fright. The bunting is a row of a dozen triangles and is where the page gets its colour, because alternating two shades along the string beats filling them all the same. Twelve minutes, from five. A spookier party sheet is Halloween Birthday Cake.
