This book is proof that things can get so much more fun when they go wrong! With the best intentions, Mothman and his friends cause chaos at Halloween,. And that's why it was the best Halloween ever! Loved the artwork and the story. Thanks to NetGalley for letting me read this.

Super cute book, loved the art work! Brings such a great Halloween spirit and how to create a solution when problems out of our control arise.

I LOVED THIS BOOK! It was amazing how the author decided to take a popular urban legend and make it creepy-cute, along with a few other urban legends that are Mothman's friends. This was especially great because the author decided to add cute blurbs about the monsters ("cryptids") mentioned in the book. This will make kids excited to learn about these legends, because the author made it super fun and not scary at all. On top of that, the story was adorable and definitely is a tale about making lemonade out of lemons. So fun! Lastly, the illustrations were adorable and detailed, putting a cherry on top of this gem of a book.
Bravo!

This was such a cute little book! I loved all the craziness the cryptid friends got up to trying to save Halloween!
Great book for kids, but can most certainly be enjoyed by adults too!

Mothman's Happy Cryptid Halloween is the BESTEST Halloween book in the entire universe!!! Seriously, I love everything about this book - the story, the illustrations, the cryptid guide at the end. I love that the cryptid friends all tried so hard to save Halloween and managed to do so in a unique way through teamwork. I'm definitely buying a copy for myself when it hits the shelves, this was such a fun book.

This book was adorable! My daughter is a big fan of Mothman’s Merry Christmas and I knew she would love this book since Halloween is her favorite holiday.

I loved the adorable chaos of this book and how it shows kids that even with the best intentions things can go horribly and hilariously wrong.

The illustrations were amazing. So colorful and engaging. The cryptid guide in the back as a nice touch as well. We can’t wait for Mothman’s next holiday adventure.

Super adorable! Mothman is one of my favorite cryptids and Andrew Shaffer is one of my favorite authors. So I knew this was going to be a perfect match. This is great for kids of all ages. It's a super fun and quick read, perfect for Halloween! The illustrations are bright, fun, eye-catching, and full of fun little details. I love the idea of a snow day but with pumpkin guts, even with the smell. I also loved the kid version of explaining what other cryptids appeared in this book. Just a lot of fun! I had a great little read with my morning coffee before hitting a day full of adult errands.

The cutest kids' book I have ever seen. I will pick this up upon release for the kiddos in my life.

The other cryptids coming together are so adorable and the illustrations are bright and unique. All hail moth man.

So cute and a fun story for the folk lore of Point Pleasant!

I go through Point Pleasant, WV many times a year as I am from a small town in WV. We often stop and go get our pics with the statue and sometimes visit the museum. I love how Mothman saves the day (again!) in this cute children's book when it rains on Halloween.

The illustrations are cute and make Mothman seem less scary.

Thank you NetGalley, Andrew Shaffer, and 8th Circle Publishing for allowing me to review.

Review to come closer to the release day on blog/other places.

Remember Mothman's Merry Cryptid Christmas (<a href="https://twirlingbookprincess.com/2023/11/review-for-mothmans-merry-cryptid-christmas/">see my review here</a>), well be prepared for a new book this year! This time Mothman is going to save Halloween! And I am in! I was so HYPED to see this book up on Netgalley, I really enjoyed the first book and I definitely need more~

It is a tad early for Halloween, but it has recently been Summerween (and yes, I did rewatch that episode AGAIN). So in the end it is perfect I guess, haha. In this book Mothman is looking forward A LOT to Halloween (and who can blame him it is such a wonderful holiday and I am happy it is becoming more and more of a thing here), I mean the dude even has a special outfit (it's a doughnut which made me laugh), but what happens when it just keeps on raining and raining and raining and raining, and did I mention raining? I loved those pages, yes, they were also sad, but I also liked how they were done. I absolutely LOVED that Mothman made a plan and I was curious what it was and I found myself rooting and squealing (because some of my favs came by in their big big outfits) and I was curious how it would go. Well, be prepared to laugh your butt off. Oh, Mothman. Well, at least he had the best intentions... but the execution... well you will just have to read! I was a tad worried how this would go, but in the end? I wish I was there. I am not a pumpkin fan, but I would love to be part of this one so badly! I was just so happy with this one and it is definitely perfect for Halloween (and Summerween).

I loved that we got a cryptid guide at the end along with some recommendation (of which I definitely need more).

The art was quite fun!

And OMG, imagine my freaking delight to see that Mothman is coming back... for VALENTINE'S DAY! I need need NEED this book! ASAP. Bring it to me. NOW.

I would recommend this one to everyone, cryptid lovers x Halloween lovers UNITE!

Mothman is becoming a favorite holiday read! I loved his little Christmas book and this Halloween adventure is just as cute and humorous! A great read for horror lovers with a sense of humor. I’d definitely buy a copy.

**Thanks to the author and publisher for the e-arc I received via NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.**

Mothman's Happy Cryptid Halloween is an adorable Halloween story. The story is perfect for introducing cryptids to young children. I love all the twists and turns and can't wait to read this with my students.

Mothman, last seen in the delightful Mothman’s Merry Cryptid Christmas, returns to celebrate another holiday beloved of children. Mothman (a creature that allegedly haunts a West Virginia town) has invited the area children to his organic farm (who knew cryptids had green thumbs?) to pick pumpkins for Halloween. But a downpour threatens to ruin all of the fun, both at the farm and with trick-or-treating. How can Mothman — and his cryptid friends — keep the day from turning into The Official Worstest Halloween Ever (in the Whole Entire Universe)®?

Andrew Shaffer, the author of an eclectic collection of books, serves as both author and illustrator. His cute red-eyed Mothman will enthrall grownups as well as their kids .and its delightful prose, grown-ups will adore this picture book even more than their children. This sequel ranks as high as the first Mothman book — and that’s saying something!

As a bonus, Shaffer includes a Cryptid Guide to explain and entertain youngsters new to cryptids.

In the interest of full disclosure, I received this book from NetGalley and 8th Circle Press in exchange for an honest review.

This is another entertaining children’s picture book with Andrew Shaffer’s Mothman. Mothman is back. Hoorah! Halloween prep has been completed, ready for child delight. But when disaster strikes Mothman comes up with a pumpkin filled, Cryptid provided surprise. But when things go awry again, we learn that things may not go the way you want but they are sometimes even better that way. Thank you to 8th Circle and NetGalley for the ARC. The views expressed are all mine, freely given.

The characters in this book are cute, the story is fun and engaging. We particularly enjoyed the costumes some of the cryptids chose to wear. The cryptids prove to be friendly, creatures who wanted to help the town and the children there to enjoy their Halloween. Proving you can't always judge a book by it's cover.

The mini cryptid guide at the end of the book was a lovely addition for anyone unfamiliar with the characters.

cute fun Halloween book for kids defiantly one I would read to my child when it come close to Halloween. with that said i give it five stars

This book is snarky and clever and perfect for people who love all things Mothman! I love that it's got a bit of sass, but is still a good story for kids.

This makes me so excited for fall! This book was SO fun! Absolutely loved it. It was such a great book. My kids and I really enjoyed it.

Even though this book is for children, I enjoyed reading it! I LOVE cryptids, and found the illustrations of them adorable. I think children will also find the cryptids, like the Mothman, fascinating. This book also did not go where I expected it to. I think it would be very amusing for a child to read.

What a great Halloween read for children and parents alike!

Mothman deserves no less than 5 stars! This was a quick, cute read with awesome illustrations!

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for this eARC in exchange for an honest reviews. All opinions are my own.
