What is Griselda Snook's spectacular books about?

Henry is sure books are not for him—until he follows Griselda Snook into her extraordinary Halloween bookshop. Inside, shelves are packed with stories for witches, ghosts, monsters and every other spooky customer. As Henry explores the magical shop, he discovers that there are books about all sorts of things, and perhaps one that is perfect for him. With Griselda’s help and a lively guest reader, Henry begins to see that finding the right story can open up a whole new world.
