pickAn adorable reimagining of Baba Yaga as a witch from Santa Fe. I loved all of the nods to the inspiration, like the roadrunner legs and the prickly pear fence. I'm not sure why the girl looks like she stepped out of Tim Burton's imagination in most scenes. #Retelling #BabaYaga #Witch #PictureBook
pickIn this Halloween book, Lila throws a party for the whole class at a haunted house, which is actually a museum that rents the house out for parties. There‘s a ghost rumored to live there and all the kids scare themselves with every little weird noise. I wish I had a rich friend like Lila when I was growing up. 😆 4⭐️

And now dear little children, who may this story read,
To idle, silly flattering words, I pray you ne'er give heed:
Unto an evil counsellor, close heart and ear and eye,
And take a lesson from this tale, of the Spider and the Fly.
This poem can be used during Halloween time to fit the fall and scary theme! This book can also be used to teach the moral lesson of “stranger danger“.
pickThe Spider and the Fly is a poem that was written by Mary Howitt in 1829. This classic poem is about a spider that manipulates a fly into its trap with twisted words. At the end of the poem, the spider heeds a warning to the children who are reading to not be tricked by the words of strangers.
“Family, friends, school - they were just obstacles in the way of getting more candy.”
