The seasonals are my favorite of all your fabulous lists. I am already eagerly awaiting the winter ones! We always start October with The Little Leftover Witch and always will. And the Best Worst family are just legendary in our house! There's another series you might like - The Charlie Bumpers series by Bill Harley. The Halloween one is my favorite - The Shrieking Skull, lots of laughs. There's also a Thanksgiving one, a start of the school year one, and lots of family events to celebrate.

Thank you so much for this. I was having a hard time finding non-scary Halloween books for 4-6 year olds. One I did find is Dixie O'Day and the Haunted House, by the wonderful Shirley Hughes. We love all the Dixie books. For 2+ year olds I love Humbug Witch, by Lorna Balian.

In reply to Amy // Sunlit Pages. Oh, I saw one that she wrote, but I didn't read it. I didn't know there were several. I'll have to add them to our reading list!

Your seasonal lists are MY favorite as well, and I'm so glad you added one for Halloween. This will keep us busy for several years! Just a few weeks ago, I discovered that Eva Ibbotson actually wrote several Halloween-themed middle grade books. We just started The Great Ghost Rescue last night.
