Description
Alby and his family are new on Pleasant Street. Their house is perfect, with a great tree to climb, and a pool. Their pet, Delia, is still in training, but she's settling in just fine.
And tonight is Halloween - Alby's favourite night of the year - so ANYTHING could happen...
A hilarious story about family and friendship, and what happens when trick-or-treating doesn't go to plan.
