Children’s librarian Kaitlin Frick writes: “Pumpkins on stoops? Leaves littering the sidewalks? Candy and costumes sitting front-and-center in all your favorite shops? These signs can only add up to one thing: It’s October, the best month of the entire year in this humble librarian’s opinion! Scary books make the perfect accompaniment to this season, so I’ve asked some of my favorite librarians to share their October reading recommendations. From picture books to novels and even a bit of nonfiction, we’ve got you covered for spine-chilling titles to share with your patrons.”
