About this ebook

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Find out what happens after Disney Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas in the first book of the hit series that’s told from the perspective of Sally, the determined rag doll and love of Jack Skellington!

And don’t miss the sequel, Hour of the Pumpkin Queen, available now!

Jack and Sally are “truly meant to be” . . . or are they?

Following a whirlwind courtship with her true love, Jack Skellington, Sally the rag doll has officially stepped into the role of Pumpkin Queen. But while she adores Jack with every inch of her fabric seams, she can’t quite say the same for her new job. Cast into the spotlight and tasked with all sorts of royal duties, she starts to wonder if all she’s done is trade her captivity under Dr. Finkelstein for a different cage.

Then, while exploring the Hinterlands beyond the holiday doors, Sally stumbles upon a long-hidden entrance to another ancient realm called Dream Town—and unknowingly sets a chain of sinister events into motion. Before she knows it, both her future as Pumpkin Queen and the future of Halloween Town itself have been thrust into jeopardy.

Can Sally discover what it means to be true to herself and save the town she’s learned to call home? Or will her future turn into her worst . . . well, nightmare?

this book is so good and so intriguing to the point you don't want to drift your wrestling away and your able to vision your own film image software how the chapters of the book could look like and it made sense to some point of the story of Sally and I'm so grateful that this book came out and I was so moved into chapet 16 or 17 I can't remember where it's revealed Sally has parents and its not really a spoiler Xmas rthe other already mentioned ut and it's known I think to the world and I just can't wait what awaits in the future for our beloved pumpkin king and queen and hopefully they should start working on a sequel movie like a trilogy or just yeah like a series on disney plus or even if it was a cartoonist version but something. I would love for shea and also a big part from disney and tom Burton to unveil more stories about now they're children maybe since we do know that have 5 skellington children and maybe a future beyond them growing into teenagers or idk but the book was👍

This book came across my mind around 3AM and I bought it twice. As an Ebook and as a paper copy. I delved in and fell in love with the writing style and the creativity. Shea has perfectly captured how i imagine the love beteen Jack and Sally to be, and i loved it so much, I read the whole thing in one sitting! Needless to say, I couldn't stop until I finished. I love the uniqueness of the characters. I felt Sally's emotions so well that I feel like I know Sally personally after this story. I can honestly say, I cant wait to read this again. It was wonderfully immersive experience into my favourite world.

I really enjoyed this story. I love where the author chose to start the story. The road that the pumpkin has to take is a long one full of discovery. I was investing in Sally’s journey for the very beginning. I loved watching Sally grow into herself. The backstory and world building was amazing. I love how the author what is known and loved and then expanded and made it their own. It is a wonderful story.
