Rose and the magical Pumpkin

A rhyming picture book for ages 4–8

Rose’s
Halloween

One dark street. Three frightful fiends. And one important word Rose has forgotten to say.

By Matt William RobinsonISBN 978-1-0369-9378-8

The story

A Halloween treat with a mischievous bite

Rose can hardly wait to go trick-or-treating with her cousins Billy and Ben. Her mum has only one request: remember to be polite. But excitement gets the better of Rose—and soon the decorations outside three neighbouring houses are no longer decorations at all.

Carried into the glowing Tangerine Land, Rose must face the Halloween Fiends, return what she has taken and discover that a heartfelt thank-you can be rather powerful magic.
