It's Halloween night! Which means it's time to take your friendly neighborhood ghost trick-or-treating.

You may not think of your ghost as being scared of many things, but that's something you should know up-front about your ghostie friend- they scare easily. And before you venture out, it's important to know that there are many rules to follow when meeting your local creepy crawlies. Please Don't Scare the Ghost is your one-stop shop to navigating Halloween night and its witches, ghosts, zombies, and vampires, so as not to offend any of your new friends.

With sweet yet funny text from Carrie Williford and gorgeous cozy art from Allysa Adams, Please Don't Scare the Ghost is destined to become your next favorite Halloween picture book--as long as you remember not to feed your ghost any peppered pumpkin pops.

Please Don't Scare the Ghost is Carrie Williford's picture book debut. She also writes for educational and consumer trade magazines published for young readers. She lives in Raleigh, North Carolina, with her husband, daughter, and dog. Allysa Adams (pronounced a-LEES-a) has always loved making things. Her childhood was spent drawing, sculpting, and wandering the woods to collect bones and feathers and interesting rocks. After completing degrees in molecular biology and genetics, she became a dentist (she still is!), but found she needed more of an outlet for her creativity and has since pursued illustration as a second career. She is most drawn to projects that blend day-to-day reality with elements of surrealism and outright fantasy, and if left to her own devices, would doodle endless fantastical monsters. While not working, Allysa can be found exploring Pennsylvania with her husband, young daughter, and their poorly trained dog. They live in an old house, filled with bones and feathers and interesting rocks.
