About this book

Willow and her little monster friends are taken aback when the old, abandoned house on Shivers Street is taken over by new occupants. It was their favourite place to play, but now it’s clean and tidy and the air smells like lemons. It’s terrifying!

Things get even scarier when they’re invited to a Halloween party by their mysterious new neighbours, who just might be the spookiest monsters of all . . . humans!

Known for his beloved and spooky Haunted Canada series, Joel A. Sutherland is bringing his spellbinding storytelling to a younger audience with his debut picture book!

Reviews

Praise for The Scariest House on the Street:

“This is Joel A. Sutherland’s first picture book, and he sets the tone perfectly for young children. . . . A story that will remind them to see past differences and find the authentic, human or monster.” —CanLit for LittleCanadians

“Award-winning horror writer Joel Sutherland’s debut picture book is chock full of perpetually popular Halloween antics, elevated by monster-sized irony, and capped off with a warm message of acceptance. Terry Pearson’s cinematic digital illustrations have a dose of gross . . . and plenty of heart.” — Canadian Children’s Book News
