Step into a frosting-fueled mystery. The Haunted Cupcake Contest whisks young readers into a Halloween bake-off where ghostly giggles swirl, toppings swap themselves, and two clever friends-Mia and Leo-race to spot the "haunted" cupcake before the judges take a bite. With semi-realistic cartoon visuals and a funny, gentle-spooky tone, this read-aloud celebrates curiosity, teamwork, and quick thinking as kids learn that brave hearts and bright ideas can save the day (and the bake-off).
Perfect for ages 3-6, this story blends humor, problem-solving, and Halloween charm for bedtime, classrooms, and giggle-filled family reading. Young readers will love the lively scenes, candy-coated wordplay, and a satisfying mystery that stays sweet, not scary.
Beyond the Story - Extra Story Content:
Story-inspired coloring prompts that invite creativity and fine motor practice. Rhyme Time Fun with short, catchy verses for early rhythm and phonemic awareness. "Did You Know?" fun facts connecting treats, colors, and traditions to real-world knowledge. Silly jokes built for preschool giggles and confident read-aloud moments. Tongue twisters that encourage articulation, pacing, and playful speech. "Which Would You Choose" wacky dilemmas to spark choices, conversation, and imagination.
What readers will love:

Soft-spooky Halloween setting with friendly tension and a cheerful payoff.
Clear, rhythmic lines ideal for read-alouds and early listeners.
Semi-realistic cartoon art direction that pops on every page.
