How to choose a Halloween book for your child
Our Halloween books are spooky enough to thrill and cozy enough for bedtime. The Jack-O’-Lantern Express is a three-chapter adventure, made for three cozy reading sessions: a glowing pumpkin train and a friendly skeleton conductor carry your child off on Halloween night. The Treasure of Hollow House sends your child and their friends after an old attic map into the creepiest house in town, where Bix, a ghost boy, is waiting for someone brave enough to stay.
Two are funny with a message inside. In The Candy Dragon, your child hoards every piece of candy in a homemade dragon costume until a small neighbor’s treat bag breaks. In The Pumpkin That Followed Me Home, a warty, wonky pumpkin wins out over the perfect one, for the child who wants everything just right.
Each book is illustrated from one photo of your child, with their name throughout, and made for ages 2 to 10. You see a free personalized preview before you buy. For a child who prefers giggles to ghosts, start with The Candy Dragon; for one who loves a mystery, Hollow House. Read one the week before, then bring it out again every October.

Questions about our Halloween books
Quick answers about these books, prices and delivery.
Are the Halloween books too scary for young kids?
They’re made to be cozy enough for bedtime, with glowing jack-o’-lanterns, friendly ghosts and just enough spooky to thrill. If your child is sensitive to suspense, look through the sample pages on each book’s page first.
What ages are these books for?
Magic Story books are made for children ages 2 to 10. Younger children enjoy them as read-alouds, and older children can follow the story on their own. Some books give their own age range on their page.
How long does delivery take?
Every book is printed to order. In the US, delivery takes 5 to 10 business days from your order with standard shipping, or 5 to 8 with expedited shipping, including 3 to 5 business days of printing. Checkout shows the delivery estimate and shipping rate for your address. See how long delivery takes.
Can I see a free preview before I buy?
Yes. Create your child’s character from one photo and see a free personalized book preview, with no account or credit card needed. The preview shows your child in a scene or on a cover from the book you choose, not every page. See how the free preview works.
