![]() | I Ain't Gonna Paint No More! (Ala Notable Children's Books. Younger Readers (Awards)) by Karen Beaumont
Buy new: $10.88 / Used from: $3.08 This is one book worth every penny! We first discovered this book at story time at our local bookstore. And have been reading it almost every day ever since. My child recites the whole first page at least once a day. Cutest thing ever!

![]() | Starry Safari by Linda Ashman
Buy new: $10.88 / Used from: $0.71 We checked this one out from the library and my 2 yr. old loved it so much we had to buy a copy. After just a few days of reading it, he was quoting full lines from the book. The illustrations are fun, the story is cute and it has quickly become one of our favorites

![]() | Rub-a-Dub Sub by Linda Ashman
Buy new: $12.00 / Used from: $0.50 I checked this one out after my child fell in love with Starry Safari. And we have another winner with Rub-a-Dub-Sub! He loves this one just as much.

![]() | Green Eggs and Ham (I Can Read It All by Myself Beginner Books) by Dr. Seuss
Buy new: $8.99 / Used from: $0.01 A classic! And another one we currently read pretty much once a day. I think its the rhyming that makes it appealing to my toddler.

![]() | Rolie Polie Olie by William Joyce
Buy new: $6.99 / Used from: $2.05 I had this one in my collection long before I ever got pregnant. I pulled it out one day when my lil' guy was about 18 months old, just to see if he would like it and it was an instant hit. 7 months later we are still reading it quite frequently. I think this one is classic and so much fun! The illustrations are bright, colorful, and just beautiful, too!

![]() | Little Blue Truck Board Book by Alice Schertle
Buy new: $6.99 / Used from: $3.19 Ahhh, I LOVE this book! Trucks + animals = big hit for little boys. Such a cute story about a FRIENDLY little blue truck, who helps out a not so friendly big yellow dumptruck. This one has a good message to teach and I love books like that.

![]() | Animal Hide-And-Seek (Touchy Feely Flap Book) by Jenny Tyler
Buy new: $10.87 / Used from: $0.25 Usborne makes some awesome books! I bought this one when my child was just over a year old and it has been one of his favorites ever since. There is always something new to see in this one. And Usborne will replace books for 1/2 price..which is nice when you have toddlers that rip flaps off...
|
![]() | Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star by Kate Toms
This book is soooo darling! My husband even loves this one. A further exploration of "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star, How I Wonder What You Are"... this book is just beautiful. The illustrations are cool, too!

![]() | Harry the Dirty Dog Board Book by Gene Zion
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $2.97 This book was one of MY favorites growing up, so I love that they have a board book version of this story. My child loves it now, too. He loves to count the dogs and cats and trucks etc. on all the pages, also!
|
![]() | That's Not My Dragon (Usborne Touchy Feely) by Fiona Watt
Buy new: $8.99 / Used from: $2.01 Another Usborne book. These are AWESOME! My child got this for his 1st birthday and it was an instant hit. Touchy/Feely books are great, and this series is probably the coolest I have seen.
|
![]() | The Fire Engine Book (Little Golden Book) by Tibor Gergely
Buy new: $3.99 / Used from: $0.01 I thought this would be a nice edition to our collection since boys seem to always have a thing for trucks etc. And I love the Little Golden Books with the old school type of illustration. (there is a board book version, too, which is great for toddlers who are tough on their books)
|
![]() | How Do I Love You by P. K. Hallinan
Buy new: $3.95 / Used from: $0.66 How Do I Love You, Let Me Count The Ways... this one always made me tear up when I read it at first, because when you're a mom, it's so true "For if I had a million days and time enough for all the praise, I couldn't tell you all the ways... I LOVE YOU"
|
![]() | Blankie by Leslie Patricelli
Buy new: $8.36 / Used from: $7.11 As someone who grew up with a blankie, this story just rang sooo true for me in so many ways. Thankfully, my toddler is not as attached to his blankie as I was to mine, but nevertheless, he loves this book, and so do I!
|
![]() | I Love My Mommy Because... by Laurel Porter-Gaylord
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $0.01 I bought this book because I wanted to share my love of animals with my child. And this book has a nice selection of animals in it, other than the normal farm animals you seem to always see in young kids books.
|

![]() | Panda Bear, Panda Bear, What Do You See? by Bill/ Carle, Eric (ILT) Martin

|
![]() | Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? by Bill Martin Jr.
Buy new: $7.95 / Used from: $0.01 Another classic. This was the first book my son received when he was born. He still loves it. Great way to teach colors, as well as animals. And my toddler is fascinated with the teacher and children at the end of the book.

![]() | Millie Moo Touch and Feel Picture Book (Touch and Feel Picture Books) by Roger Priddy
Buy new: $9.32 / Used from: $0.01 A wacky touch and feel book! This one is so cool and so different from most touch and feel books out there. It's adorable!
|
![]() | If You See a Mouse
Buy new: $5.99 / Used from: $0.99 The great thing about this book is the cause/effect aspect of it. For example, "If you see a ladybug, sing to somebody". One day my toddler was looking at this book on his own, and when he got to that page, he started singing a song. Took me a minute to figure out he was actually doing what the book said, and boy was I AMAZED. And so tickled by it, too. :)
