Spooky Halloween

Posted On 2009-10-03 , 2:59 PM

Dear Diary,

Halloween in Coming!Anime halloween witch and spider web

It's time for costumes, dress-up, let's pretend, and scary, spooky stories. And who doesn't like Halloween?  If the projects in the Oct 09 issue of The BuzzLetter are not enough to get you into the mood for Halloween try these creepy books. They're suitable for ages 8-12.

  • Dare to Be Scared (Thirteen Stories to Chill and Thrill - Illustrated)
  • Ghost Mysteries (Unraveling the World's Most Mysterious Hauntings- Illustrated)
  • Scary Stories For Sleepovers (Terrifying and uncanny tales that are sure to make kids huddle together.)
  • Skeleton Creek - Series #1 (A "multi-platform" mystery incorporating text and video in a way that has not been done before about two small-town teens)
Dare to be Scard ghost stories Ghost Mysteries Scary Strories for Sellpovers Skeleton Creek Series 1

Special occasions like Halloween have fun activities and provide opportunities for kids to Catch the Reading Bug.  Watch for our New Books for Kids in our Top Ten list, too.

 Happy Trick or Treating!

1. Halloween has always been one of my favorite holidays (that, and Easter).  I love the colors and crafts of both holidays and have so much fun decorating the house!  It's been a few years (and then some) since I've been young enough to go Trick or Treating, but the candy is always good too!

Wish I could add some more great books to your Halloween book list.  There were a lot of different ones that I read growing up, but I can't remember them now.  :(
