Some may say ghosts are too scary to introduce to young kids. I disagree. Ghosts don’t have to be scary; they can be cute, silly, funny, and friendly. Casper taught us that! They’re also a great way to introduce history lessons and provide an entry into some difficult conversations with kids about death and what happens after we die. And there’s no time like Halloween season to give your kids a little fright with a good BOO(k). Check out these new ghost stories for kids this October and beyond. We’ve got ghost stories for all ages, from interactive board books to middle grade books and graphic novels for more advanced kid readers.
