A Halloween classic with a brand-new colourful and creepy cover...
Bong! Goes the bell in the rickety tower,
Twelve times . . . that means it's Spooky Hour.
Hubble bubble, what's that smell?
Eleven witches stir their spell . . .
The creepy countdown has begun, so get ready to giggle at funny, floaty ghosts, clickety-clackety skeletons and terrific tromping trolls!
Count down to Halloween with this rollicking, romping story from award-wining author Tony Mitton. With hilarious, glowing artwork by Guy Parker-Rees, illustrator of the bestselling Giraffes Can't Dance.
Highly-respected poet Tony Mitton wrote many titles for children, including the picture books illustrated by Guy Parker-Rees: Bumpus Jumpus Dinosaurumpus!, Down by the Cool of the Pool, Spookyrumpus (winner of the Sheffield Book Prize, the Dundee Book Award and the Portsmouth Book Award) and Jolly Olly Octopus among many others. In 2014 Tony won the prestigious CLPE Poetry Award for his retelling of Wayland. Tony spent much of his time writing, giving poetry performances and visiting primary schools for author events. Guy Parker-Rees' exuberant and energetic illustrations have made him a household name and one of today's bestselling children's illustrators. Notable successes include picture book classic Giraffes Can't Dance, a worldwide bestseller; Spookyrumpus, winner of the Sheffield, Dundee and Portsmouth book awards; and the heartwarming Elephant Me. Guy lives in Brighton with his wife and three sons.
