Before emigrating from Ireland, Lila assures her siblings they will still celebrate Halloween in America, but with no turnips to carve into jack-o-lanterns, Lila must get creative to keep her promise. Includes a recipe for colcannon. |

"When Lila and her family leave Ireland for the United States, Lila misses many things, but especially Halloween. Each year, she and her siblings look forward to tricking a sly spirit named Jack by carving turnips into jack-o'-lanterns and walking the streets of their small town in ghostly costumes. Now, with no turnips in sight, can she bring the spirit of the holiday to the crowded city streets of her new home?" -- Provided by publisher. |
