The Halloween Tree

A short illustrated-style fantasy for young readers. On Halloween night a group of boys set out to enjoy trick-or-treating, but when one of their friends is suddenly in danger, they follow a mysterious figure, Mr Moundshroud, on a journey through time. They travel through ancient and medieval history to learn where Halloween customs, costumes and fears began. Playful, spooky and full of history, it is a warm tale about friendship, courage and the human response to death.
