A Mother Goose Halloween is a short children's story in which Mother Goose gathers her eight beloved charges — Bo Peep, Boy Blue, Miss Muffet, Humpty Dumpty, and the rest — to share their own Halloween adventures. Each child reveals a surprising side: quiet Bo Peep chases elves, slow Marjorie Daw suddenly sprints from a white ghost, and brave Miss Muffet finds black cats and owls far more thrilling than spiders. Warm, playful, and laced with pumpkin pie, the story reimagines familiar nursery rhyme characters in a festive October light.
