You have entered the crooked door
Cassie and the Halloween Door
A warm picture book about the little dog who went looking for adventure — and found the one place she truly belonged
Halloween night. The village is loud with costumes, and I am at the gate, hoping someone will say my name. Nobody does. So I follow a golden light into the trees, and there is a door that should not be there. Foxes dance. Bats sing. Owls turn feathers into stars. Some of it is beautiful. Some of it is not home. Come with me. I will show you the door, and the way back.
Inside this world
On Halloween night, Cassie watches the costumes and the laughter from her garden gate. Nobody calls her name. So she follows a golden light into the woods and finds a crooked wooden door that should not be there. Behind it wait dancing foxes, a sky of masked bats, and owls who turn feathers into stars. Some of the magic is beautiful. Some of it does not feel like home. A warm picture book about the little dog who went looking for adventure — and found the one place she truly belonged.
