I know not all of us have kids, but we all love to read. I thought I would post some of our favorite kid's books and then hopefully get more from you to add to our reading repertoire.
Right now my kids (ages 3 and 5) really love "I Spy" books, Arthur, Franklin, and Megan (3) loves anything Princess or Ballerina. We recently found "Belinda the Ballerina" books by Amy Young about a ballerina with big old feet who can still dance and both my kids love them. Here is a list of some more favorites. Please share your faves!
-Hooway for Wodney Wat, by Helen Lester
-Knuffle Bunny, by Mo Willems
-Click, Clack, Moo Cows that type, by Doreen Cronin
-Going to Bed Book, by Sandra Boynton (most of her books are great)
-Good Night Gorilla, by Peggy Rathmann
-The Pigs's Picnic, by Keiko Kasza
-If you give a pig a pancake, by Laura Numeroff (all the books in the series are good)
-Dog's Colorful Day, by Emma Dodd
-Are You My Mother?, by P.D. Eastman
-Corduroy, by Don Freeman
-Tacky the Penguin, by Helen Lester (ALL the Tacky books are HILARIOUS!)
-Story of Ferdinand, by Munro Leaf
-Little Critter books by Mercer Mayer
-Eric Carle books (these are great because they usually have an interactive element at the end, like a click beetle and then the book has a clicking sound, etc)
-Arthur books by Marc Brown
-Franklin books by by Paulette Bourgeois and Brenda Clark

More more more!
I have read everything on my list, and now need more books. I just recently re-read (actually listened on my Zune) "The Poisonwood Bible" and loved it even more. I almost wanted to go to the Congo, but am afraid of the green mamba.
I am waiting for "Unaccustomed Earth: Stories" by Jhumpa Lahiri to come in at the library for my next read. I loved her book "The Namesake." (the movie, not so great)
So....let's get some more recommendations going!
