I want to pass down all of Ari's baby type books to Corinne but I need to replace them first.

He loves the Pete the Cat series. What else can you recommend?? He really likes the early reader type books.

[TrudyCampbell]

Llama llama series is a huge hit here.

So A really adores Richard Scarry books, especially the big word books. We don't read like the whole thing, but she does a few pages every night, and she loves to point out all the things on the pages she knows. It's been great with her vocabulary I think!

Thanks! We have some Llama books that he's not a massive fan of. But I'll check out the other recs

Oh man, they love Pete the Cat too!! Their birthday party was all Pete the Cat lol.

Okay: they love Dr Seuss books, Jon Muth's books (the illustrations are great), and these Sesame Street books my sister got them: www.amazon.com/Sesame-Street-Brand-Readers-Books/dp/0763661562/ref=sr_1_7?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1427900704&sr=1-7&keywords=sesame+street+reader

I'm trying to gather "early reader" books and keep some of the mundane books b/c I figure they're going to start learning to read in the next 1-2yrs and those books help w independent reading.

We have soooo many curious George!

The Hiccupotamus is a huge hit! There is another in the series, the Chimpansneeze but it is harder to find. So much fun!

Also ---  A Mighty Girl has a ton of great recommendations for books and you can sort them by age. It's geared for empowering girls - but I think it's really for everyone We look there all the time for book recs ever since our friend bought some off their recommendation for Xmas for Max and a few of them were really terrific.

I find rhyming books much more fun to read for myself so now I try to buy books that rhyme.
