Jasper yelled for his parents when a carrot shadow lurked up on his bathroom walls. Then while he was brushing his teeth, he saw the creepy carrots. When he turned around, it was just a washcloth, shampoo bottle, and a rubber duck. He thought he saw three jack-o-lantern-jawed carrots behind him in the bathroom mirror. He first noticed something strange after his Little League game when he stopped at Crackenhopper Field. Jasper enjoyed these carrots "on the way to school, on his way to Little League practice and on his way home at night", until he started to imagine that they were following him. They were "fat, crisp and free for the taking". Jasper Rabbit loved carrots, especially the carrots that grew in Crackenhopper Field. This book was followed by two more books, Creepy Pair of Underwear! and Creepy Crayon!. In 2013, a 10-minute animated film based on the book was made by Weston Woods Studios and narrated by James Naughton. It was published on August 21, 2012, by Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers. Creepy Carrots! is a 40-page children's picture book written by Aaron Reynolds and illustrated by Peter Brown.
