Bookroo's summary

A little green witch faces a daunting task: crafting a pumpkin pie without any help from her lazy monster friends. Ghosts, bats, and gremlins refuse to lend a hand, leaving her to tackle the challenge alone. Will she succeed in her spooky endeavor, or will her monstrous companions learn a lesson in teamwork? This Halloween tale offers a whimsical twist on a classic story, filled with magical mischief and unexpected surprises.

From the publisher

The little green witch has a problem: her lazy monster friends just won’t help her make a horrible pumpkin pie. Not ghost, nor bat, nor gremlin. Barbara McGrath’s feisty retelling of “The Little Red Hen,” with Martha Alexander’s charming illustrations, is the perfect choice for Halloween fun.
