Spotlight: Santa's Slip Up by Raven Howell and Savannah Horton (Illustrator)
/
It’s the night of Halloween. Spooks, spiders, and skeletons abound, the full moon glows – so who is cheering, “Ho, ho, ho!”? Apparently, Santa Claus has come to town, though it’s the wrong time of year! But what could be a bad situation, is wittingly handled with humor, and there’s a new winner at this year’s Halloween parade
For fans of Room on the Broom and The Little Old Lady Who Was Not Afraid of Anything.
Excerpt
“...If it wasn’t the moon
Round as a balloon,
Nor the vampire,
Nor the black crow,
If it wasn’t the hobbling,
Groaning goblin,
Who cheered,
Merry Christmas! Ho-ho!...?”
