“[…] perfectly captures that sense of misty autumnal days […] Warm
autumnal colours and a rhythmic rhyming text capture the fun and
excitement of Halloween.”
*The Bookseller, Children's Previews*
Sumptuous production from Walker Books, this feels like a real
treat of a book – as sweet as a toffee apple and as warm as hot
chocolate. It's one to share on a crisp October night and to
treasure, year after year.

Jarvis’ illustration is absolutely remarkable, and its soft
retro-styled beauty makes this book really stand out – especially
the Christmas tree spread at the end.
