It's that time of the year when you need to get to your local library or bookstore and grab these great Halloween books for toddlers. I hate missing a good opportunity for some new books to read, and you don't want to miss out on these ones! The books I've chosen are suitable Halloween books for 1,2 and 3-year-olds, and of course, all will be fine for older children too.

I was wondering if you'd be willing to tell me what the flaps are/say in the I love you little pumpkin Book? I bought my daughter a copy on Amazon only to find out it's missing three of the flaps (bunny, monkey and mirror page) and I wan t to make some replacement flaps but I can't find anything online that says what the flaps are or what the words are. If you have a free minute ever, that is. Thanks a billion and love the book suggestions !
