|This novelization of the classic 1993 [[Halloween]] film ''Hocus Pocus'' contain the same conservative messages that the movie had portrayed: family and friendship. The sequel has Max and Allison's daughter Poppy witnessing the three Sanderson witch sisters rising up again after twenty-five years, and she must work with Thackery Binx's ghost and a friend to stop them from wreaking the destruction that her parents and aunt helped stop. While the novel contains the same conservative messages that the book before and the film portrayed, it does include a homosexual scene with Poppy being kissed by her childhood friend who is a girl.

|''Warriors'' (or ''Warrior Cats'') is an ongoing book series about five colonies of feral cats called Clans living together and fighting for survival. The series starts with a house cat named Rusty leaving his owners to join one of these Clans, and later books star much more characters that include the descendants of Rusty (who eventually becomes Firestar) and even cats from before his era. The series itself has had seven six-book arcs, thirteen stand-alone books, four manga arcs and two stand-alone manga novels, five field guides, and twenty-one novellas.

The series starts out pretty neutral, one example being that while the Clans are staying separate, they can still come together to fight whatever threatens all the Clans, including Scourge and his BloodClan cats as well as the Dark Forest (the cat version of hell). Family is portrayed positively in Firestar agreeing to adopt his sister's firstborn kitten Cloudtail so that he can be a warrior like him. Totalitarianism is condemned through leaders like Brokenstar, who kills kittens during battle practice and forces his cats to constantly go to war.

However, it's become more liberal in later books. An open border policy is suggested as good, as RiverClan leader Mistystar's decision to temporarily close her Clan's borders and look after her own cats first is portrayed as negative. Moral relativism is even seen as good in a way, an example being the author portraying the murderous manipulator Mapleshade as sympathetic by making everyone around her even worse. There seems to be a pro-anarchy message in the form of Needletail, who refuses to take responsibility for helping the sixth arc's villain, Darktail, take control of ShadowClan due to resentment towards their leader Rowanstar. ''The Raging Storm'' portrays a not-so-subtle jab at Donald Trump's 2016 slogan "Make America Great Again" by painting Tigerheart's line "Make ShadowClan great again" in a negative light. Finally, the series promotes a slight environmentalist message in glorifying the wild cats' harsh way of life while having the Clan cats look down on house cats (known to them as "kittypets") and their safer and saner lifestyle.
