One Halloween Evening

A nervous trick-or-treater encounters new friends and haunted sights as he explores a dark and twisted road on Halloween night.

After a bad beginning, three friends discover that anything can happen on Halloween.

For many, Halloween is a time of celebration. The wearing of costume and masks, pretending to be someone, or something else they aren’t the other days of the year. But for the residents of Tranquility, Florida, it will take on more sinister connotations. One wicked spirit long thought dead means to return and bring the denizens of the Hell with him. The residents of the idyllic small town have no idea what is coming to call. But they are about to.

It all happened One Halloween Night. Ada N. Letelier’s new book is a Halloween-themed who-done-it written in rhyme. Trick-or-treaters are in for a real treat when they pass by Jack-o-lantern’s house on Halloween night only to discover a missing apple pie and evidence that Jack-o-lantern may have been involved. But how could that be? On Halloween kids get to carve pumpkins, dress up in scary costumes, go trick-or-treating with friends and just maybe, get to hear spooky stories. Holidays should be fun-filled, exciting and memorable for children. Sharing a good book needs to be at the top of the list!

One two, they'll buckle the witch's shoe (with an actual buckle flap!); three four, they'll open the do∨ five and six are for broomsticks and cat's tricks--all the way up to ten, when toddlers will be happy to see an invitation to come back and play again! There are 18 fun flaps to open and close, plus a shiny foil surprise waiting at the end.

Spacelab was a reusable laboratory facility that was flown on the Space Shuttle from 1983 to 1998. Completing 22 major missions and contributing to many other NASA goals, Spacelab stands as one of the Shuttle program’s most resounding successes. The system comprised multiple components, including a pressurized laboratory module, unpressurized carrier pallets and other related hardware, all housed in the Shuttle’s Payload Bay and crew compartment. But how did all those varied components actually come together? The answer is the little-known “Level-IV”, a team of managers and engineers who molded separate elements of hardware into cohesive and safe payloads.

Some people casually say ‘touch wood’ when they speak of something they hope will happen. Others won’t allow peacock feathers into the house. And almost anyone who finds a four-leafed clover will treasure it and keep it. Why? Some superstitions are so ancient and have been practised for so long that they have come to be regarded as just harmless and widely observed ‘customs’, without people realising they are basically superstitions. For instance, many people wouldn’t bother tossing spilled salt over their left shoulder or avoid walking under a ladder. But they happily continue to wear a wedding ring and blow out candles on a birthday cake. They don’t know why — ‘it’s just a custom’. But both are actually superstitions. In a book full of surprises and revelations, Max Cryer explains the origins of many of the things we commonly say and observe and why we continue to include them in our lives: kissing under the mistletoe, the unlucky number thirteen, the significance of the bridal bouquet, saying ‘bless you’ after sneezing, the hanging of a horseshoe, ‘the Scottish play’, the danger in opals, the Leap Year proposal … so many aspects of our lives are coloured by superstition. Now you can discover the reasons for them in a book that is both witty and informative. Superstitions will provide many ‘Eureka’ moments and settle many family disputes.
