"This dog’s-eye view of Halloween offers ample laughs...though youngsters who find spooky season a bit intimidating will readily sympathize with the pooch’s plight...Paws-itively howl-arious."
Kirkus Reviews
***STARRED REVIEW***<br /> "Keller captures the spirit of Halloween and the fear of the unknown with a gentle and humorous twist...It is perfect for young readers, who will enjoy all the hallmarks of a Halloween story but also learn the underlying message of how to be open to new things that might seem scary at first, but with time and a kind friend in tow, could be a lot of fun."
School Library Journal
Murray loves the smells, sidewalks, and hydrants of his city neighborhood—which is why he isn’t looking forward to a trip to some awful place called . . . The Country.
Away from the comforting familiarity of home, he comes nose-to-nose with strange things at every turn—and even worse, it’s Halloween! From the costumes to the decorations, the pumpkin patches to the scarecrows to a new cat foe, everything is scary.
Will Murray face his frights, or cower under the couch with his stuffy toy?
