A fun rhyming Halloween book for kids 2-8 years.

There's a Halloween party on Shivermore Street, and everyone—from dancing mummies to musical witches—is coming. There'll be whipped-cream-covered ants, pumpkin carving, apple bobbing, and a special surprise when the masks come off at the end of the night. This is a party you don't want to miss!

The Halloween party on Shivermore Street is not to be missed, especially when the clock strikes thirteen.

As a mysterious old clock strikes thirteen, monsters and ghouls appear looking for a snack and a little mischief at the expense of the small girl who lives down the hall.

In an age of obsessive productivity and stress, this illustrated ode to idleness invites you to explore the pleasures and possibilities of slowing down. Beloved author and illustrator Roman Muradov weaves together the words and stories of artists, writers, philosophers, and eccentrics who have pursued inspiration by doing less. He reveals that doing nothing is both easily achievable and essential to leading an enjoyable and creative life. Cultivating idleness can be as simple as taking a long walk without a destination or embracing chance in the creative process. Peppered with playful illustrations, this handsome volume is a refreshing and thought-provoking read. “Whimsical, clever, and companionable . . . On Doing Nothing provides a much-needed correction to our distracted, anxiety-ridden, and increasingly disembodied culture. Muradov has written and illustrated a kind of Situationist, Oulipian Ways of Seeing—a manual for clarity and presence, a book which issues a call to attention; a call to pay attention. The smart yet approachable philosophical reflections unfold like a leisurely stroll through a beautiful and unfamiliar city, provoking thoughtfulness and eliciting in the reader a spirit of discovery.” —Peter Mendelsund, author of What We See When We Read

Around the fireside, Shelby Sherman Sanford's family is talking about their Halloween fears. Mother, Father, and older sister confess their frights, but Shelby says he is not afraid of anything and wants to go out for a walk. Later that night, when the clock strikes twelve, Shelby gets his chance to prove himself in the neighbor's corn field. A young witch gives him an enchanted apple that allows him to see ghosts and monsters, and a ride on the witch's broom carries Shelby over the graveyard, past the church, and crashing into a tree to begin his adventure. But is it real or a dream?
