    What to Expect: Halloween

    This Halloween, nine-year-old Jake Hornsby wants to wear an expensive astronaut costume. When his parents refuse to buy it for him, Jake finds a way to earn the money himself. He plants a bag of mysterious seeds that promise to grow into an amazing Halloween garden, and sells tickets to what he hopes will be a fantastic display. But although Jake carefuly follows the strange instructions to care for the seeds, nothing seems to be happening and October 31st is rapidly approaching. Jake is terrified that his Halloween spectacle will turn out to be a Halloween disaster!
