'When witches make spells; they bring feathers and seeds; hard shells and soft beads; selfie photos; petals and stones; bathwater with bones; and ribbons and string, to turn into rings. And witches are so busy on Halloween.' - Witches Potions.

There are poems and tales of the Harvest festival and where the ghosts come from on Halloween night and also where they all return to. The stories are light-hearted and designed for fun so follow ghosts; witches; mummies; skeletons and many more as they visit for a very, special Halloween.

'We shared this book with Year 2 and Year 3 children, as part of our reading group. The children loved the stories and it will be perfect to share on Halloween time where children will get dressed up. It reminded both myself and the children of the real meaning of Halloween and it was beautiful to share.' - Juro reading group. 'This is a lovely book for small children. I love reading this with my children at bedtime or when we are having some one on one time. I find that it really captures their interest because as well as the stories themselves, children will also get ideas from this book to sing, dress up and play games for Halloween. The design and illustration are also wonderful. It would make a lovely little gift for a toddler at Halloween.' - Bus reading blog. 'We loved this little book! It's a must-read for all young children at Halloween. It's well-illustrated, colourful, easy to follow and exciting for children who get up the festivities of Halloween. Very happy with this book for Halloween.' - Tulemben poetry and reading group.
