The author describes their Halloween costume as a pencil that is yellow, red, and brown like the colors of a pencil, with a pointed cone-shaped head. Their midnight black shoes will carry them from house to house as they make children smile in their soft, brightly colored pencil costume.

1. Pencil Costume
By: Austin Blake
4th Hour
My costume will be as soft as a brand new
pillow, yellow like the sun, red as an apple,
and brown as wood. Children will be happy to
see me with smiles on their faces. My face will
be brighter than a candle flame. My head will
be cone-shaped and pointed to the moon. My
midnight black shoes will be panthers carrying
me from house to house.
Who am I?
