Suddenly a puppet as tall as a small tree floats over the crowd, its arms swaying above your head! This is the Village Halloween Parade, where giant puppets and thousands of people in costumes march together. Music plays, drums pound, and everyone smiles, because tonight the whole neighborhood becomes one big, happy show.  \nThose towering puppets are the real stars of the parade. They are held up on tall poles, so puppeteers below can make them dance, wave, and bow to the crowd. Some are bright skeletons, some are strange creatures, and some are shaped like animals with wide, waving wings. Because they are so big and so colorful, you can spot them from far down the street!  \nThe parade that shows off these puppets started with just one man and his family. Long ago, in the early 1970s, a puppet maker named Ralph Lee led a walk through his neighborhood in New York City with his children and friends. First it was a small parade, but more and more people wanted to join the fun. Soon it grew into one of the biggest Halloween parades anywhere.  \nToday, anyone who wears a costume can march in the parade, and that is what makes it so special. You do not need a ticket or a famous name to walk with the giant puppets. Kids, grown-ups, and even whole families dressup and join the crowd of costumed marchers. Can you believe that one small family walk grew into a river of costumes flowing down the street each Halloween?  \nA Parade of Giant Puppets  \nName:  \n\n| Solve each problem.\u003Cbr>Use the article to answer the question.\u003Cbr>1) What is the Village Halloween Parade?\u003Cbr>A.
