About this title

Synopsis

A spooky night, a haunted house, are you man or are you mouse?  Who is brave enough to go inside and, more importantly, get out to tell the tale!?

Trick-or-treating has never been this much fun . . . or scary.  The Short Straw, by Irene Mathias, is a narrative Halloween poem for children - spooky, but not too scary - and beautifully illustrated by artist Anja Uhren.

The Short Straw! A great picture book choice for fans of Helen Ketteman, author of At the Old Haunted House, Julia Donaldson, author of Room on the Broom, or the classic Five Little Pumpkins.
