Things that go bump in the night in (mostly vintage) books for young readers. 🎃👻🧛🏻‍♀️🦇🕸🦉🏚🧟‍♀️🖤🧡

POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Witch’s Sister by Phyllis Reynolds Naylor (Atheneum, 1975). I’ve posted about this book before. One of my childhood (and all-time) favorites! I have my copy that I bought when I was in the 3rd grade one hundred years ago (last photo). Over the years, it lost its front and back covers. Last year, I found the same edition with the purple and black cover on eBay. I love holding this intact copy and imagining what I felt holding it for the first time as a nine year old. 🧙‍♀️🕯️ #hauntedkidlit by @hauntedkidlit
