But when the Kingdom of Wraikaborg is threatened by the forces of Good, Hattie discovers she's the chosen one who can save the day!
Follow Hattie and her pals as they embark on a hilarious adventure filled with spooky foes like eerie aunts, ghostly henchmen, and overly-excited Halloween pumpkins. And who knows? They may even have time to snap a selfie or two!
Join the fun as Hattie learns that with a little bit of self-belief, even the most unlikely heroes can achieve great things.

Loved this. Can't wait to read it to my nieces.

Preity and Mr Jiggles were my favourite.

A short middle grade fantasy that has surprisingly good twists and plenty of humor. Really enjoyed this little book. There is an eclectic mix of characters and magical beings, animated pumpkins and a water monster too, what more can you ask for!

I think middle grade readers and younger teens will really like this book. The language is not very complex, the pacing is quite fast and there are quite a few characters and funny situations to keep them entertained throughout. Now, I am wondering if there's going to be a sequel...

I loved it so much that I just had to read it in parts or it would end too soon.

The dialogues, personalities, life lessons, adventures, it was easy to read and had a good pace.

Diverse. Magical. Funny. Scary at times.

As any fairy tale "eind goed, al goed".
