Most of our family members love to read and we have been collecting holiday books since 2010. Here is a list of our tried and true favorite family Halloween books. You can find a list of our entire collection at the bottom.
Family Favorite Halloween Books
Princess Pumpkin Patch: Our girls are loving this book, as you can see. It is fairly new to our collection, and it has the cutest message.


At The Old Haunted House: This is a cute book that focuses on counting, but the images in this book are unreal. The illustrator is incredibly talented.

Boneaparte Falls Apart: This one has the perfect message about friendship.

Five Little Pumpkins: We love using this one with playdoh. If you haven’t tried our fall play-doh recipe, you’ll want to! It smells delicious

The Spooky Smells of Halloween

Our family loves this Halloween Book because of the scratch & sniff feature. The end smell is hilarious and we all end up laughing and shoving the book in each other’s faces.



I Just Ate My Friend: By the end of this book, you’ll be laughing.
