If you’re looking for some more general Halloween book options beyond monster children’s books, here are my suggestions for best Halloween books for kids. There’s also these must-read scary stories (with some options for slightly older children). I’ve added a couple of nonfiction monster children’s books at the end as bonus content – they would still would work well as reads for monster-lovers. An additional note: on Book Riot, we do our best to actively promote diversity in books and publishing. This list of monster children’s books features very few authors and illustrators of colour because I wasn’t able to find very many – hopefully that changes soon!
Nonfiction Monster Children’s Books
Well, there you go. I hope you manage to have a creepy, satisfying Halloween. Maybe it will look different this year, maybe it will mostly be reading monster children’s books together in your home and then splurging on some candy. These creature-filled stories have enough holiday atmosphere to get you through and make your Halloween outstanding.
