Why in MY day, we only worried about “mystery meat” lunches… VAMPIRE JAM SANDWICHES are now served at KidTime StoryTime. BEWARE the unreliable narrator… 🧛🩸🥪 @TundraBooks #HalloweenReads youtu.be/nn1S46QvTkg

Turns out Costco has KidTime StoryTimers! Found ‘em in the sock aisle! Well TECHNICALLY, they found me. Gio & Avianni made their Abuelita wheel her cart over to me, and I’m so happy about it! Also, I picked up a package of like 50 socks…

After the awful news from Oregon, I started thinking schools might be stepping up safety drills. We read TEACHER, DID YOU HEAR THE NEWS? by a school social worker about the need to practice drills. Its tone is empowering & positive. I hope it helps💛 youtu.be/D278P6zNcaM

I ❤️ THIS STORY SO MUCH!💀🐈‍⬛ Slightly spooky, sassy & funny w/a philosophical streak, The Skeleton and the Cat is a picture/chapter book hybrid about an unlikely friendship. Like a bumblebee, it shouldn’t work. But it does & makes the 🌎 more beautiful. youtu.be/qULWCHqHc74

Jack O’Lantern’s got family?!🎃 Meet little brother: Jeff O’Lantern! Where Jack is scary, Jeff is sweet. Where Jack is loud, Jeff is gentle. 🥹 Just as Jeff feels he’s failing at Halloween, he finds his unique talents are EXACTLY what the night needs. youtu.be/DMH2shDJcNM 🧡

An old ghost comes out of retirement to "fix" Halloween when he sees modern kids preferring Treats over Tricks.🍬🍫🍭 But when his scary plan backfires, the ghost must SAVE Halloween. (Ghost engineering helps!)👻 Our #ReadAloud is new from @HarperChildrens youtu.be/JncyzA1ZfrU

Our spooky season #readaloud raises an existential question: Is A very SCARY book REALLY scary? Or is #SCARYbook just a lonely cupcake aficionado misjudged by its cover? 🧁🤔 It's a funny, smart story about seeing what REALLY matters. youtu.be/WyFls7nopFA
