This book is about
Mrs. Long thought she saw a tiger, a dinosaur and a fairy with a purple wand in the park. She had to go to see the doctor because she thought she was ill. Some children were dressed as a tiger, a dinosaur and a fairy and they were doing 'trick or treat'.

The main characters are
Mrs. Long and Mr. Lee.

My favourite part of the book is
When Mrs. Long thinks she is ill.

I would also like to say
I loved this book.
