These are just a few of our little girls’ favorite books at our house. Boys will enjoy them as well. What was your favorite childhood book?
We also loved The Napping house by Audrey and Don Wood. Many of their books are fun to read, and great illustrations Piggies is another one by them that comes to mind.
My 2 year old is really into Eric Carle books right now as well. They are short, but often help teach simple concepts as well. Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What do you See? Is helping him learn his colors quite effectively.
Thanks for the list, some of these I had forgotten about and will need to find them again.

I loved “Make Way for Ducklings” so much as a little kid (over 40 years ago) that I had to read it to my own kids, too! PS…the girls look so adorable in their matching jumpers!
I loved Amelia Bedelia as a kid.
Sounds like some great children’s books. Thanks for stopping by my blog.
Great TT!! My 3 y/o boy is into Bedtime for Frances. He really enjoys that one along with Big Red Barn. Another fave is Runaway Bunny. He calls it his bunny runned away book. Too cute really! Have a great day!!!
I loved A Boy, His Dog and a Frog and then when older I loved a book about a wooden doll called “Hitty: Her First Hundred Years”.
The Story About Ping by by Marjorie Flack and Kurt Wiese
On of my favorites was Miss Suzy by Miriam Young. I also enjoyed the Magical Land of Noom by Johnny Gruelle.
