Children's Halloween Books
Here's a few Halloween themed children's book from my bookshelf:
The Traveling Circus by Mark Watson
The little boy’s biggest and best present,
was an awesome, fold-out circus tent.
He put it up and played in it all day,
flatly refusing to tidy it away.
In the middle of the night,
when all were sleeping sweetly,
music came into his dreams,
although he slept so deeply.
He tossed and turned and mumbled,
then in his sleep he spoke,
“The Circus is in town!”
And with that he awoke…
He rubbed his eyes and shook his head,
fairylights were on his bed!
On the top, down the side and
along the floor they went,
like softly glowing fallen stars,
leading to the tent…
Whiskers' Halloween by Shana Gorian
What’s a scaredy-cat supposed to do when all the ghouls and goblins seem real?
Bubble Head, Boo! : Happy Clean Halloween! by Misty Black
A funny Frankenstein? A not-so-spooky spider? A moody mummy? HALLOWEEN has never been so HYSTERICAL!
Fred imagines amazing adventures during his nightly bubble baths. "SUNDAY, I'm a SPOOKY SPIDER crawling up your arm. I may seem rather creepy, but I don't mean any harm." What will he be on MONDAY?
Using alliteration and written in rhyme, this Halloween book teaches HYGIENE and the DAYS OF THE WEEK in an imaginative story your kids will want to read again and again. FOR AGES 2-7.
Includes GET-READY-FOR-BED/HYGIENE CHARTS kids can mark off in the back of the book to reduce bedtime stress.

As always, I like to bring you suggestions from my fellow book bloggers so I asked what Halloween reads they recommended and this is what they said...
Halloween Books for Younger Kids
@amloughrey recommends The Little Ghost who didn’t like to be scary by Isla Wynter. "An excellent book for showing how important it is to talk about your worries and ask for help if you need it. I like the way the author, Isla Wynter, demonstrates free will when Layla thinks about the advice she receives from the owl before deciding what she wants to do." Read the full review here.
@cjfriess recommends The Green-Fingered Witch by Helen Docherty & Steven Lenton. "The easy to read rhyming text is complemented by Steven Lenton’s wonderfully atmospheric illustrations. Spooky blues and autumn browns perfectly reflect the Halloween season and they include so many humorous details." Read the full review here.
Halloween Books for Older Kids
@SifaPoulton recommends Things That Go Bump by Kathryn Foxfield. "This book showcases the fun side of horror, where humour and scares coincide. You get to be unsettled by strange noises, and then laugh at the next escapade. It’s a nice blend." Read the full review here.
@thepagewalker1 recommends Warren the 13th and The All-Seeing Eye by Tania del Rio. "It’s a story that kids will truly enjoy. It’s got all the fun, craziness, adventure, and mystery they will appreciate. Plus, the illustrations are all wonderful; meticulously done in red, black, and white, it will surely catch the kids’ attention." Read the full review here.
@Behindthepages1 recommends City of Ghosts by Victoria Schwab. "City of Ghosts is the perfect starting point for young readers and even adults who are interested in ghost stories. There is just enough of a spooky feeling and close encounters to draw readers in but not overwhelm them." Read the full review here.
@PagesUnbound recommends Eleanor, Alice, and the Roosevelt Ghosts by Dianne K. Salerni. "Eleanor, Alice, and the Roosevelt Ghosts is one of those rare middle grade books that feels almost magical. The premise, the plot line, and the characters all combine to create an engrossing story that is hard to put down." Read the full review here.
@fly276 recommends Scareground by Angela Kecojevic. "Friendships might be questioned & tested here but the unique characters will keep you wondering & guessing. Enjoy every moment!" Read the full review here.
@_forbookssake recommends Dread Wood by Jennifer Killick. "It was funny, enjoyable to read, and actually rather creepy. I really hope that we get more books, and that this becomes a series, because I would love to continue on a journey with these characters. This is definitely one of the best middle grade horrors that I’ve ever read." Read the full review here.
@AndOnSheReads recommends Shadowhall Academy: The Whispering Walls by Phil Hickes. "As always with Phil Hickes’s work, this was a spooky delight to read. He always excels at capturing the ambiance, and although I read most of this during a sunny train ride, I could feel the cold breath of ghosts breathing down my neck; see the autumn leaves crisping and falling; hear the tap tap tapping on the walls."
