The Cat In The Hat Knows A Lot About Halloween! Page #3

flasher start counting.

One one thousand.

Two one thousand.

When you hear the boom

stop counting.

And when you see

the next flash

start counting again.

Flishy flash flashers.

One one thousand.

Two one thousand.

Three one thousand.

Hey it was longer

that time.

Which means the storm

is moving away.

Aww.

Do not think you will have

a problem

with thunder again nick.

You have been very brave.

Even though

was frightened?

Because you were

frightened.

You cannot be brave

unless you are afraid.

Facing fears make heroes

of us all.

Now let us go find that

ooky makooky closet.

Hey look at that.

It is a pumpkin patch.

Pumpkin patches are very

Halloweeny places.

Just the sort of place

you might find

the ooky-makooky closet.

What? Huh? I...

I don't... I don't think so.

No, no, no, no, no.

I don't think so at all.

In fact, a pumpkin patch

is the last place to look!

How come?

Yeah, how come?

Because, um, I...

I just remembered!

Oh, yes!

Where to find

the ooky-makooky closet

is at my good friend

Bubbles Beeterbom's place.

Why didn't you

remember before?

I must have been keeping it

under my hat,

along with so many

other things.

Bubbles' house is not far.

Oh, boy. I can't wait to check

out the ooky-makooky closet.

Which one

is Bubbles' house?

Can't you tell?

It's the ookiest, kookiest

Halloween spookiest house

around.

The ooky-makooky closet's

in there?

Where else? Follow me.

Cat might not be frightened

of ookie-kookie houses,

but ooey-gooey green slime

is sure to make him jump.

Uh-oh.

Oh, this is so exciting.

Ooey-gooey

green slime.

It's so Halloweeny.

Bubbles' place looks just like

a kooky carnival fun house,

only for real.

More ooky than kooky.

What's this? Nobody home.

"Please let yourself in.

The key's under the mat.

Especially if you're

the Cat in the Hat."

Bubbles Beeterbom.

Leaving a key under the mat

is not very safe.

That all depends

on how many mats you have.

Whoa.

Which one is it under?

There's only one way

to find out.

Not here.

Or here.

Maybe here.

I'll check over here. Not here.

Hmm.

Maybe here? Not here.

Try this one right here.

There it is.

We found it.

Yay!

Uh-oh.

It's even more spooky

on the inside.

Maybe this isn't

a fun house after all.

Whoa! Check out these mirrors.

They make you look kooky.

I think you mean ooky.

Ooky-makooky.

Look at you!

What's that rustling noise?

And tapping! Ohh!

Didn't you hear that?

Hear what, Sally?

Never mind.

Aw.

Bubbles must love Halloween.

Her place looks so Halloweeny.

Eww. These cobwebs

aren't decorations.

They're real.

Real dust and cobwebs?

Awesome!

Huh? Hey, Nick,

I think something's behind us.

Yes. You.

Come on, slowpoke.

Do you get the feeling

we're not going anywhere?

That's because we aren't.

This kooky old house

is full of surprises.

And creepy sounds too.

Maybe we'll find

the ooky-makooky closet in here.

It's only moths.

Moths did that?

Well, their babies do.

Some types of cloth

contain nutrients

that help baby moth larvae

to grow.

I sure hope we find

the ooky-makooky closet

before the moths do.

It must be through

one of these doors.

Oh... oh...

Aah!

Okay, you must have

heard that.

Nick? Cat? Fish?

Where are you?

Aah!

Have no fear.

The Cat is here.

Sally, are you okay?

I thought you were

right behind us.

We didn't mean

to frighten you.

You didn't, but this

ooky-makooky house sure did.

It's full of strange noises.

What noises?

Sighs. Groans. Whispers.

And a door slammed shut

all by itself too.

You mean Bubbles' house

isn't a fun house?

It's a haunted house?

Let's get out of here.

There is that wonderful

imagination again.

Bubbles would not let anything

harmful into her house.

We must not let fear

stop us from having big fun.

That is not the way

to get big things done.

There is a way to stop things

from sounding so scary.

There is?

You just need the right tools.

What is that bump

in the night

That gives you a fright?

That creak in the stair

that raises your hair

These things can be beat

with a few simple tools

As long as you follow

This one simple rule

Take charge

And fix it

Open windows

slammed doors

And creak creakers mean

fixing floors

Take charge

And fix it

Fix it

To stop whispers and sighs,

a cap on your chimney

is really quite wise.

Take charge and fix it

And that scary old door?

A few drops of oil

and it is scary no more.

Take charge and fix it

That rustling rustle

and tappy tap tap

Means it is gardening time

it is as simple as that

Take charge

And fix it

It is fun to do

And it will make it

less scary for you

Take charge

Oh take charge

Take charge

Take charge

Take charge

And fix it

So all those scary sounds

heard

came from the wind

playing tricks.

A few simple fixes stop wind

blowing through floors.

They could make your house sing

and sometimes slam doors.

Plus it saves

on heating bills.

Things are not nearly

so scary

once you know

how to fix them.

Think you are very brave.

Even though was

frightened?

Because you were

frightened and fixed it.

You cannot be brave.

Unless you are afraid!

What was that?

We fixed everything,

so it cannot be the wind.

Maybe there really is

a ghost.

It is halloween.

Guess am very brave,

because am very afraid.

Hello!

Bubbles!

Beeterbom!

Well hello.

See you got my note

and let yourself in.

Was out buying buttons

to sew on my new coat.

Do you like it?

We do we do.

And your hat too.

Oh my. This just will not do.

The cat has a hat

and so do.

Now let us find some

that are just right for you.

Sally pom pom doodles

are in.

A warm winter hat? Yes.

Bubbles is a great

haberdasher.

Gesundheit!

Gesundheit!

Thank you

but did not sneeze.

A haberdasher is someone

who makes hats.

Oh a fluffy sun hat.

You got to have

one of those.

Oh a home run

with this hat.

Thanks bubbles.

But we are not

looking for hats.

We are looking for the perfect

costumes

to dress up in

for halloween.

Why did not you say?

My ooky makooky closet

is chock full of costumes

and clothes.

Hip hip hooray.

Right this way.

Mean right this way.

Whee!

Yahoo!

Boing boing!

Whoa. Oh hi.

Hi bye.

Right this way.

Going up?

Bubbles house

is not so ooky.

But it is still

definitely kooky.

Your house is very mothy,

Bubbles.

That is why keep

all my costumes and clothes

safe in here.

The ooky makooky closet.

We found it!

Open it please!

Ta da!

Huh?

It gets better.

Amazing.

Wow.

One size fits all.

Look at that.

It is so cool.

Welcome to my closet.

Have every costume

you can imagine.

And some you cannot.

Bubbles has costumes

that are historical.

Ta da!

And zoological.

She has costumes

that are botanical.

Loves me.

Loves me not. Whoo hoo!
