Ollie the curious owl hears whispers in the moonlit forest—and follows them to a glowing pumpkin patch with secrets to share. With Daisy the gentle deer by his side, Ollie dons his tiny detective hat and discovers a heartwarming truth: the pumpkins aren't spooky at all—they're wishing to be chosen for Halloween fun. Cozy mystery meets sweet friendship in this mildly spooky, feel-good picture book that sparks curiosity, kindness, and community.
Perfect for ages 3–6, this story features:

  • A gentle mystery with a friendly twist and a joyful resolution.
