Halloween Hats by Elizabeth Winthrop
Fun book that promotes head lice!  Just kidding.  This rhyming book talks about different types of hats and honestly, I never realized how many different types of headgear we've got in the world!  There are helmets for football, miners, costume hats, peekaboo hats for babies, etc.  My lame-o comment about the lice is because the end of the book, they all toss their hats up and a different person gets your hat. 
 
Moonlight the Halloween Cat by Cynthia Rylant
Super duper simple book about a black cat and how she loves all the elements of Halloween like the smiling pumpkins, the scarecrow's lap, and of course the candy.
 
Skeleton Hiccups by Margery Cuyler
Random--a hiccuping skeleton?!  A skeleton has the hiccups and tries various methods to try to get rid of them.  He eats sugar, drinks water upside down and holds his breath.  Eventually his ghost friend helps the skeleton get rid of them by having him look in a mirror.
