As music teachers, we are always looking for wonderful stories with loads of musical possibilities. 

One of my favorite stories for this time of year is The Little Old Lady Who Wasn't Afraid of Anything by Linda Williams and Megan Lloyd. 

Basically, the little old lady helps spooky characters work together for a surprisingly non-Halloween finish. (Which means even our students with Halloween restrictions can enjoy the story! More on cultural competency later!) You're definitely going to love this one!
