Happy Monday Friends! The weekend went by way too quickly as weekends often do but we are loving the 65 degree sunshine that welcomed us today! Even though the weather doesn't feel so much like fall, that hasn't stopped me from pulling out our Halloween books and filling Liam's shelves! I thought I'd pop on here today and share a few of our favorite Halloween books ...
L I T T L E O W L ' S N I G H T | about a darling little owl who stays up all night because he is just too excited to witness all the amazing things around him (Liam loves trying to find the little owl on every page too!)
W H E R E I S B A B Y ' S P U M P K I N ? | a flap book to search for baby's pumpkin and find other fun Halloween things along the way like bats, ghosts, and even caramel apples
L I T T L E B L U E T R U C K ' S H A L L O W E E N | little blue truck picks up his animal friends who are all dressed up in different costumes on his way to a Halloween party (This has been a favorite we added to our collection this year and Liam loves lifting all the flaps to discover what animal is under the costume. No matter what animal he finds, he says "MOOO" for every single one with his head thrown back and everything! haha)
H A P P Y H A L L O W E E N D A N I E L T I G E R | Daniel Tiger and his friends dress up as their favorite characters for Halloween (Another new book we added this year based on Liam's obsession with Daniel Tiger. It is fun to see him recognize all the characters already in the story.)
H O O D W I N K E D | about a little witch who tries to find the perfect "creepiest" pet and ends up with one of the cutest after all, it's adorable
(These next two have been a little too long to keep Liam's interest so far this year but I still love them and hope he will in the future too ... )
R O O M O N T H E B R O O M | a witch and her cat begin to lose things off their broomstick as the wind picks up and other animals come to their rescue to save the items that have fallen off but want a ride on the broomstick in return
H U G G L Y ' S H A L L O W E E N | a hilarious little story about Huggly and his friends out trickor-treating on Halloween night (This was a favorite I would read to my elementary school kids when I taught third grade!)
I T ' S P U M P K I N D A Y M O U S E | Mouse decorates each of his 7 pumpkins with faces that have a different emotions (Liam's favorite part ... when a dog jumps out from behind the pumpkins and says "boo"! haha)
W H E R E T H E W I L D T H I N G S A R E | not necessary a traditional Halloween book but Max does dress up like a wild thing so it felt fitting, not to mention it is a true childhood classic after all (I even planned Liam's first birthday party around it last year!)
I hope you find a few new ones from this list to add to your Halloween collection this year! We are always looking to add to ours so please share your Halloween favorites in the comments below! XO
