A not-too-spooky Halloween story that turns the Great Lakes State into a monster-filled playground—perfect for kids ages 4–8!
From
Detroit
to
Kalamazoo
, monsters are on the move—but they're here to party, not to scare.
A Halloween Scare in Michigan
is a delightfully silly read-aloud that combines colorful creatures, playful rhymes, and just enough mischief to thrill young readers without the frights.
Designed for early elementary readers, this story delivers age-appropriate Halloween fun with a gentle tone and rhythmic verse that parents and teachers love to read aloud. Though lightly sprinkled with nods to local landmarks like
Mackinac Bridge
and
Fort Gratiot Lighthouse
, the focus stays on the joyful energy of Halloween night, as silly monsters descend for a celebration more festive than frightening.
With bright, whimsical illustrations and a charming story that invites laughter and curiosity, this book has become a seasonal favorite for families from Michigan—and beyond. Whether you're building a Halloween basket, planning a classroom storytime, or sharing a cozy October evening with little ones,
brings warmth, giggles, and monster magic to every fall bookshelf. A must-have for fans of
Room on the Broom
,
Little Blue Truck's Halloween
, and not-so-scary seasonal reads.
Prepare, if you dare,
for a Michigan scare,
A night of pure terror to whiten your hair.
A tale full of sights that are best left unseen.
You ready? You sure?
This was my Halloween.
