Happy Halloween! It's been a minute. (4 years 🤪) I've since had two more kiddos. My days are spent reading lovely picture books with my younger three and delightful classic lit, roving history, and enduring nature stories with my oldest for his homeschool. We also buddy read plenty of fun middle grade stories. This, a small sample of our spooky season reads.
How have you all been AND where is the app? I can't find it in the Google Play Store?? 😅

Velvetfur Hiya lovely!! Google doesn't do the Litsy app anymore, I found that out the hard way 😭 I'm on the website, it's the only way I can get on Litsy nowadays! I love your little ghosty mug 👻 19h

Ruthiella Welcome back! There is a way to get the app on your android phone. I think the instructions are on the Facebook page. (edited) 17h

SamAnne Hah! Because Litsy doesn‘t allow Google access to our information. Welcome back. 17h

SamanthaMarie @Ruthiella I don't even know how to tag people anymore so hopefully this works lol!! Well the website it is then. It's just great Litsy still is here. The best little pocket of the Internet! And yes! My husband got him for me! He's been fun to have a hot cocoa in. 🥰

@Ruthiella Thank you!!! Okay, I might try and find that. I'm not on FB but I'll do some deep dive googling haha.

@SamAnne Well then, major applause to Litsy and I'll be fine then 😆 15h

SamanthaMarie @Jas16 Thank you so much!!! I've been missing it. And the best time is always the holiday season with all the cozy reads and longer nights of indoor time haha. 15h

Lcsmcat Welcome back! And reading to littles is the thing I most miss about parenting. I have to settle for my grandkids. 😀 15h

Pick a Pumpkin | Patricia Toht

4 🌟This was a fun things online book about pumpkin picking and pumpkin carving. In particular the illustrations are beautiful to look at. This would be fun not just at bedtime, not just at Halloween, but at story time all through the year.

Adorable book with awesome artwork! 🎃📖 #scarathlon #scarathlon2021 #teamslaughter @Clwojick

Tera66 Would this be good for a 5 yr old? Or too spooky? 4y

Charityann @Tera66 I don‘t think it would be too spooky. It‘s just carved pumpkins - one looks like a witch which is probably the scariest looking one. The text isn‘t spooky at all. (edited) 4y

Tera66 @Charityann Awesome! Thank you! 4y

Not sure if this is a board book or not, but it feels like a board book. It shows what pumpkins can and do become on Halloween. This book is a bit darker, which is noticeable from the cover. Not anything meant to scare, but it appeals to the horror loving parents and isn‘t all cute and chibi style. It‘s dark, decadently so.
