The Scaffold Rhymes

Autumn has come to Thicktwist Forest and the town of Tawny Hill, and all of the residents—human and otherwise—have a promise to keep to her. From a young witch navigating Halloween rush hour to the town librarian appraising costumes, from a marsh critter venturing too far into town to four friends trooping into the forest at dusk, this collection of verse and illustration celebrates the season’s delights and dangers. For kids and adults who love October.
