Hazel and the Spooky Season
Written by Kyle Sullivan
Illustrated by Jess Mason
1st Published September 5, 2023 by Hazy Dell Press
38 pages, Hardcover
AGes 5-9

There is nothing Hazel loves more than autumn, the spookiest season. But why doesn't anyone else seem to care?

When nobody in her town seems to share her love of the spooky season, Hazel is left feeling alienated, alone, and unable to express herself. Everything changes when Hazel receives a visit from Ronnie Pumpkinseed, a supernatural pumpkin-headed ambassador for all things spooky. Ronnie teaches Hazel a special word for what she feels inside—Halloween!—and helps Hazel find the courage to be herself and follow her heart, even when it's scary.

Miss Wilkinson lives with her adored cat, Tommy Douglas, whose eyes glow a brilliant orange. But Tommy Douglas is 17 years old. When he becomes ill and dies in Miss Wilkinson's arms, she buries him in the garden and plants a rosebush on his grave. Despite her determination to keep busy, grief and loneliness make it difficult for Miss Wilkinson to enjoy life. Then one morning, after a particularly troubled night, she discovers that the rosebush she planted has bloomed with brilliant orange flowers -- the color of Tommy Douglas's eyes.

Ages 0-12

The little black cat who lives in the pumpkin patch must find a witch before midnight on Halloween! If he doesn't find a witch who needs a black cat before the moon rises to the top of the sky, he won't have a home or become a Halloween Cat-the most powerful black cat there is.

Joined by a small mouse, the little black cat sets out to find the perfect witch for him. Together, they visit spooky houses and have some unusual surprises-but they can't find a witch who needs a black cat! Losing hope and about to give up, the mouse and the little black cat meet an owl with a mysterious idea that might change everything.

Will a trip to the village of Witches Cove hold the key to the little black cat's search for a witch who will give him a home and make him a Halloween Cat?
