What would you do?They have spent a year plotting.They are hungry.They are coming.And they will not stop.Teenager Artie Eason accidentally stumbles over a dastardly plot to steal kids using the Pumpkin Code on the dark October night.He soon realises - danger lurks behind every door. Can he save his friends and family before it is too late? The Pumpkin Code is the new children's book from Martin Smith, bestselling author of the Football Boy Wonder and the Charlie Fry Series.Each of Martin's stories contains strong moral messages - and this young adult horror book looks at stranger danger, loyalty to your friends, and why you should never, ever give up.Oh, and never trust a goblin either.Praise for Martin's work:"I got this book to encourage my eight-year-old to read more. He lacked motivation before this. All I can say is thank you so much!""We love the storyline because it captivates our son's imagination and encourages him to read. Would recommend to anyone with a reluctant reader ... it's certainly done the job in our household. Charlie Fry has even been our son's World Book Day choice!""There are quite a few football books for young children but I've found them to be so badly written and not something that I've taken great pleasure in reading to my children. This is different; we were all captivated in the first chapter and that, I think, has a lot to do with the quality of the writing style."Who will the Pumpkin Code appeal to?It has been written as a scary story for children and young adults. The age range is (roughly) 10 to 14.The age range is older than Martin's previous work - primarily because the Pumpkin Code focuses on the issue of stranger danger for older children.People looking for books similar to The Ghost Files and The Creakers may want to give this a read.
