Questions about this book

My child scares easily, can we make it a friendly Halloween?

Yes. The stories are written fresh, so you can mention in the "Anything special we should weave in?" field that they prefer silly ghosts over spooky monsters. Picking the Courage lesson can also help shape a gentle story about feeling brave.

Can their friends join the trick-or-treating?

Yes. You can add up to four extra characters. Just upload a photo for each friend, and they can all go door-to-door together in the story.
