Logo for The Switch Witch, a Halloween-themed event or tradition, featuring a crescent moon, stars, and a purple ribbon with the text 'A Halloween Tradition'.

A magical Halloween picture book for ages 3–10 that turns excess treats into sweet dreams, special wishes, and a tradition families can make their own.

What if Halloween candy could become something even sweeter?

Every night, the Sweet Witch protects children’s dreams, chasing scary dreams away with a little bit of magic. But little by little, her magic begins to run out—and Halloween is almost here.

Then she discovers something extraordinary.

On Halloween night, children can choose some of the treats they’ve gathered, leave them for the Switch Witch with a special Switch Wish, and while they sleep… she makes the switch.

But the sweetest magic isn’t really in the candy.

It’s in the courage children gathered on Halloween night, the joy they carried home, and the kindness it took to choose something special and share it.

The Switch Witch: Keeper of Sweet Dreams brings the magic to life with a beautifully illustrated story and a Halloween tradition families can return to year after year—giving children the fun of trick-or-treating while creating a thoughtful way to share some of their excess candy and make healthier choices.

Dream it. Draw it. Believe in it. Make the switch. ✨
