Here comes crocodile by Kathryn White,Don't put your finger in the jelly, Nelly! by Nick Sharratt and I've lost my yellow zebra by Angela Brooksbank - all 3 keep my 2 year old entertained!!
Both my daughters (3 and 5) love 'The Tiger Who Came To Tea' by Judith Kerr. It was one book I always remember from when I was young.



They know it off by heart now and they always say the last line together shaking their heads so seriously-it always makes me laugh!Whats your favourite childrens book?
Any Noddy books by enid blyton, and also i loved babar - i think they have made that into a tv programme now!Whats your favourite childrens book?
shel silverstein books are great---invest in Where The Sidewalk Ends and also The Giving Tree....my 3 year old loves Chicka Chicka Boom Boom(it's an alphabet book of sorts) and curious george is great for kids getting older
when i was a kid i used to love reading Funny Bones, Harry Potter is a good one as well because adults enjoy it too!
My kids (girl-4 / boy-3) love, "Possum Magic" by Mem Fox and Julie Vivas.
Colin Dan and the animals of farthing wood is good and he has written loads more talking animal stories, but I also love any Roald Dahl and where the wild things are.



My son is a fan of thomas the tank engine so we usually read those at bedtime. peep peep!!
Any of the Dr. Seuss or Shel Silverstein books make the grade, as well as "Where the Wild Things Are", but my most favorite, %26amp; I know that it has become a bit controversial over the last few years is, "Love You Forever". It always makes me cry.
we have a book full of "bedtime stories" and one of "fairy tales"
my little boy loves ,

Guess how much I love you?

We're going on a bear hunt

The very hungry caterpillar
I have two daughters -- 3 years old and almost 2. Their favorites change regularly, but here are some that they really like this week.



"Mike Mulligan and the Steam Shovel" and "Katy and the Big Snow" by Virginia Burton -- stories that teach a good work ethic and have lots of big machinery that kids love (Katy is a crawler tractor with bulldozer and snow plow attachments. Maryann is the steam shovel in the other story.)



anything with Winnie the Pooh in it



"Mrs. Wishy-Washy" by Joy Cowley -- very funny and simple enough for beginning readers to read alone
Four years is quite a large age gap between children - my own are now 17 and 21. You could ask your son to make a book for his little sister. That way, both children are involved and at their own level of understanding. Pictures cut out of magazines and stuck in a scrap book with a word or two underneath were the starting point for my children.
"Love You Forever" by Robert Munsch

All Dr. Seuss books

All Berenstein Bears books
My best friend found this book called "Love You Forever" by Robert N Munsch and Sheila McGraw that I absolutely fell in love with and I also love "Butterfly Kisses" by Bob and Brooke Carlisle. I read those both to my girls!
Guess how much I love you?

We're going on a bear hunt

The very hungry caterpillar
I used to read a series of books written by a child/teenager and they were stories about fruit and vegetables that hand hands/feet etc etc. I can't remember what the series was called now but it was in the early 80's.
mary poppins..p.l.travers
anything by debbie gliori.

the snail and the whale is also good, as is a squash and a squeeze.

and to be traditional winnie the pooh
The Little Old Man who could not Read by Irma Simonton-Black. It may be hard to find, but your kids will love it. My boys are 5 and 2 and they asked me to read this one several times a day.
Walter the Farting Dog (yes it is a childrens book and it is a best seller)

Goodnight moon

Guess how much I love you

Dr. Seuss ABC book



Love them all
Any Roald Dahl are brilliant. My Dad used to read me Wind in the Willows which I still look back on with great memories. Enid Blyton is fun and easy. What Katy Did series are old now but still great - they were read tome as well.
My favourite books are any Shirley Hughes books with Alfie and Annie Rose. I love the drawings in her books. I have bought most of her books for my daughters. I have to say I love Guess How Much I Love You? Its a beautiful story and I still get a little choked up at the end LOL!
"Oi, get off my train!"



quality book, kept my little 'un entertained from the age of 1 to 4. Encourages them to join in, and has an ecological message as well.
My daughter is 2, she has tons of books! She doesn't really have any favorites yet, but some that she likes are Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear, and Bears on Wheels (a Seuss). I like Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear, because when it says "Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear, I love you" I always give her a little hug, and she's gotten used to it and will anticipate it at that part of the book. She'll always get a little grin on her face right before I do it. It's just our special little thing!
i'm parital to these ... its free...so are my grand kids
My kids always loved the fantastic mr. fox by roald dahl.



The Hungry caterpillar is great for young kids as well.

" If You Give A Pig A Pancake"....you are such a good mom! "If You Give A Mouse A Muffin" is good too!
my favorite was always The giving tree by shel silverstein

Dr Seuss
