"[...] 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. * BookTrust *
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. * BookTrust *
Featured in The Bookseller's September Previews. -- Fiona Noble *
