Halloween Picture Books and a FREEBIE!

Hey everyone!

Can you believe Halloween is approaching so fast? I can’t but I can tell you I do have my costume AND I pulled out my Halloween books at school and put them out for display.

Here are 20 of my all time favorite Halloween picture books! You will see some old classics (ones I read when I was little- I still remember thinking Clifford was hysterical as a ghost) and some very new ones. What is your favorite Halloween book? Under the collage I will list the books-click on the titles for more information at Amazon!

Below I will share some links to resources AND a Halloween Freebie!

* Random comment: a lot of these Halloween books have commas in the title!

Check out a few pins I repinned that I thought were fun for Halloween! (and I can not figure out for the life of me why some are aligned to the left, some to the center, etc.!)

And here is my Halloween/Thanksgiving board that has a lot of other fun Halloween ideas! Stop by and check it out!
