Halloween-Inspired Reads

I feel like Halloween is what you make it. You can choose to focus on all the wrong about it or embrace the fun of childhood and the magic of the falling leaves. Dressing up, eating treats, engaging your neighbors and reading fall books is really what fills this season with joy for us. And you know I love a good seasonal swap out of books on our playroom shelves! Don’t miss this post on the cutest ghost leaf garland! Grab your kiddos, take a walk and make this cute garland today. Here’s a glimpse at a few highlights making the shelves look extra fun these days: Halloween-inspired reads.

Admittedly many are not related to Halloween in the slightest, they simply reflect the sights, colors and feels of the season. Grab them from the library, borrow them from friends or stock up on a few for your own seasonal collection.

| The Little Kitten | Stumpkin | Little Boo | Flock | Little Blue Truck Halloween | Kitten’s First Full Moon | One Black Cat | They All Saw a Cat | It’s the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown | The Roll Away Pumpkin | The Scariest Book Ever | Pumpkin Pie | Spooky Pookie | The Big Book of Beasts | Sweep | Gusavo The Shy Ghost | Fletcher and the Falling Leaves | How to Make Friends with a Ghost | Pick a Pumpkin |

 

If I had to pick a personal favorite, I’d say Stumpkin is it. Every year my kids specifically pick out a “stumpkin” from the pumpkin patch. Followed closely by Fletcher and the Falling Leaves although not really Halloween-y, its illustrations are so beautiful I can’t help but keep this one on the shelves for months on end. Pick a Pumpkin is also beautifully illustrated and new for us this year.

I hope you’ve enjoyed this sweet round up of books that give me the Halloween feels. What are some of your favorite Halloween-Inspired Reads? I’m all ears!
