As I was looking at the Berenstain Bears website today, I found a bibliography of their books. They have written 252 books! Wow! I read through the list and found all of the titles that seemed to be spooky books for the Halloween season. I haven't read all of them, but I did list the titles below. The first two titles are ones I will be writing about in the next few days, and I know with certainty that they are good spooky Halloween reads.
