|  | Halloween Showdown by Eileen Ross, Lynn R. Reed Grandmother Katt is just putting the finishing touches on her granddaughter Tabithia's Halloween costume when Grizzorka the Witch swoops down and snatches Tabithia into the sky. This means war! Grandmother sets off to rescue her darling kit and along the way gains some surprising additions to her army -- an angry arachnid, whose webs have been stolen by Grizzorka; a frazzled frog, whose family members have become the secret ingredient in witch's brew; and a blazing bat, who is tired of the bad rap that witches give him. In Eileen Ross's not-so-scary Halloween story, brought to life with Lynn Rowe Reed's bold, delightful illustrations, Grandmother Katt proves that love and friendship are stronger than the magic in any spellbook.
