(3) K-3 Illustrated by Kevin O'Malley. A witch puts a spell on her freshly baked pumpkin pie to protect it from scavengers, but a vampire, ghoul, ghost, banshee, zombie, and skeleton find the pie irresistible. They stuff themselves, then fall asleep--and the spell transforms them into the various ingredients the witch needs to bake a new pie. The repetitive text and large spooky-comic illustrations make the tale a fine not-too-scary read-aloud.
