You have some great suggestions here, I never thought to use Wombat Stew for Halloween, I love that suggestion, such a fun book to read aloud, children love singing the song in the book with me. I have two recommendations for Halloween books, Room on the Broom by Julia Donaldson, its always a hit with children, especially at this time of year. The second book, isn't specifically Halloween, but I love it for this time of year, The Magic Hat by Mem Fox. I adore Mem Fox, I think her books are brilliant, the reason I love The Magic Hat for Halloween is that you can relate the magic hat in the story, that turns the people in town into different animals, to dressing up in costumes for Hallowen, it can lead to a discussion with the children about, what they are going to be for Halloween or creative ideas for costumes.

Yes, I love both of those books! (Didn't even think to put them in this video... will add to them to the list for next year!) I used to use The Magic Hat all the time when I was teaching Prep. Mem Fox is an utter gem of a writer.
