Halloween Countdown: 30 sleeps...if you can!

It's finally here—October 1, the start of the most amazing month of the year. Sure, there's Thanksgiving, but even more exciting? HALLOWEEN!

And just like last year, I'm counting down the days to October 31 with craft ideas, delicious themed recipes, book recommendations, movie reviews, and much more!

Today, I'm kicking of this spooktacular countdown with the scariest book in the Superman Duffy collection—BENEATH THE SOIL! Haven't read it? Here's the blurb:

Chase is supposed to be babysitting little Jack Lawrence—but in the blink of an eye, the mischievous toddler runs off into the wetlands, and gets stuck in the mud. He starts to sink and over the sound of the croaking frog, Jack's terrified scream gets Chase's heart racing. 

Dawning a pair of special Steampunk goggles from his sister, Chase dives after Jack and together, they must navigate the tunnels beneath the soil, where monsters of all shapes and sizes lurk in the shadows. Written by Dawn Ius and illustrated by James Grasdal, BENEATH THE SOIL is your perfect Halloween companion.

Sounds creeptastic, right? Well it is! And you know what's even better? YOUR SCHOOL can get it for free. Seriously—there's no trick. Just log on to the Alberta Canola Producers' Commission website to download it or order for your school.

It's the perfect read to start the Halloween countdown!

Gotta jet! See you tomorrow for more spooktacular fun.
