When I was a little girl, I was not a fan of Halloween. Too much scary, not enough friendly ghosts. As an adult, I still stay away from all the horror and gore, but that doesn\u2019t mean I skip out on this holiday altogether \u2014 my kids would never let that happen! But since my young ones are a little skittish too, we tend to lean toward the not-so-scary side of October 31st, and these three books offer the perfect amount of fright without sacrificing any of the fun.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
