Looking for that perfect pumpkin for your Jack O'Lantern? So is Sylvie Ann, and just look at what happens! Pumpkin Moonshine is written and illustrated by Tasha Tudor.

Now this one, Runaway Mummy: a Petrifying Parody, by Michael Rex would fit nicely with my post on Good Night Moon and all those parodies. A loving spin on Runaway Bunny (Margaret Wise Brown and Clement Hurd) it is filled with monsters, which also makes it an excellent choice for a Halloween post. :-)

1962. That's when this song was released? Do you remember? (I do!) Here, in Monster Mash, artist David Catrow gives the lyrics wonderful, creepy, 'monstery' illustrations. (As for the song itself, Bobby Pickett and Leonard Capizzi did the words and music).

While Ten Orange Pumpkins: a Counting Book by Stephen Savage would fit well with my Counting Book post(s),it fit even better here! Love the pictures! Be sure to keep an eye on the cat.

Here's a fun spin on lullabies: Creepy Monsters, Sleepy Monsters, a Lullaby, by Jane Yolen and illustrated by Kelly Murphy. Find out just how monsters get ready for bed!

A picture book, a counting book ... and a Halloween book, that's why Spooky Pookie, by Sandra Boynton is going with this post! Follow Pookie as he decides on the perfect costume for trick or treating. Great fun!
