jmarchman Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 We usually read Wild Child by Lynn Plourde every Autumn, but I've discovered that our library has taken it out of circulation. :( Any recs on sweet Autumn or Halloween books. Nothing scary, please. I have ages 5, 8 and 10. TIA!!! Jennifer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AmandaVT Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 Pumpkin Jack is one of our favorites. We bought Room on the Broom this year and love it. Ollie's Halloween by Olivier Dunrea.

TyraTooters Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 These books look great! Thanks for posting and sharing! LOL I'm going to have to get a job just to buy books for our library here at home! Our small town library just never has the books I'm looking for and if I did an interlibrary loan it can take up to four weeks to get the books I've requested.
