It's Halloween and five monsters are brewing a savory Halloween stew. Each monster adds something special to the mixture -- a juicy frog, a bat, a hairy spider. But when the littlest monster gets too curious and tips over the pot, the stew runs away! Little Moe is inconsolable (and very hungry!) until a knock on the door brings an unexpected guest -- and a big Halloween surprise. With rollicking rhyme and glowing watercolors, Pamela Jane and Vera Rosenberry serve up a tasty holiday treat for readers of all ages.
