Jan Thomas is a sure hit at our house – every one of her books just amuses everyone to no end (although I have a special place in my heart for Let’s Sing a Lullaby with the Brave Cowboy) and this pumpkin-themed one is no exception.

Here are my list of the best Halloween books, whether you’re looking to build your own collection of Halloween picture books or just grab a few new titles from the library: I’m kind of dying that this year, all my books are in storage, so we have to make do with the library’s Halloween books. Every year, I buy one or two new ones to add to our collection, and it’s so fun to see them come out in October, be read daily for a month, and then put away to anticipate for another year. My girls are obsessed with it and love talking about their costumes, I love that, as a grown-up, there’s so much less pressure to wear a costume, and I can just buy myself all the candy I want on clearance after Halloween.Īlso, I love decorating my house and putting out my growing display of the best Halloween books for our family. I have never been particularly into Halloween, even as a kid.ĭressing up is not my thing, I hate scary stuff, and basically it was a reasonably fun holiday, but nothing I looked forward to all year or something.īut now as an adult, I am QUITE into Halloween. Holiday books can be hit or miss, but these are the best Halloween books in my opinion – they’re clever, well-written, and beautifully illustrated! You won’t want to miss any of these Halloween picture books.
