stephg Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 What are your toddler's favorite books. I'm not really looking for story books. We have plenty of those. I'm looking for fun flap books or other fun books for independent "reading". We have lots of Thomas train books. Thanks.

Susie in CA Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 The books my boys loved the most were Usborne books. They have lots of touch books, flap books, and big books. We loved them for this age. Susie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mom2boys030507 Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 My boys loved the I Spy board book type of books - especially if I found one that was Sesame Street or other TV Characters, and Alphabet books. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjlcc Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 My 2 yr. old loves to sit and look at the following: The Spot board books by Eric Hill. Curious George board books. Board books by Leslie Patricelli. Brown Bear, Brown Bear What Do You See? The Baby's Catalogue by Janet Ahlberg. I See and I Hear by Rachel Isadora. Also, potty books. :tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farrar Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 When they were toddlers? Freight Train by Donald Crews (my number one pick for train loving boys!!!) Everything by Sandra Boyton Everything by Leslie Patricelli All the shorter books by Eric Carle Blueberries for Sal by Robert McCloskey Knuffle Bunny by Mo Willems Drummer Hoff by Ed Emberley Chicka Chicka Boom Boom The Snowy Day Old Hat, New Hat (and all those early Berenstains books - Bears in the Night, Inside Outside Upside Down...) Whose Mouse Are You? by Robert Krauss Goodnight, Gorilla by Peggy Rathman (and Five Minutes to Bedtime) Goodnight, Moon (I know there's an extensive anti-Moon conversation going on... take it or leave it...) Anything shorter by Leo Lionni (especially Swimmy) Anything by Rosemary Wells, but especially all the Ruby and Max books I can think of more, but I would go on for pages... I would also highly recommend the Cat the Cat books by Mo Willems. These are so new, they weren't around when my kids were toddlers! But they're there now!

Holly Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 This is an adorable book!

LibraryLover Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 Spot the Dog. Every single one of my four loved Spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
annlaura Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 "Look, Peter Rabbit" is a lift-the-flap with a mirror at the end that both my boys love. "Peter Rabbit Touch and Feel" "Where Is Baby's Bellybutton?" This series of lift-the-flap books: http://www.amazon.com/Farm-Lift-Flap-Hinkler-Books/dp/1741579325/ref=pd_sim_b_2. Bought all of them on super clearance at Borders. My younger likes any touch-and-feel books, including all the DK ones and Pat the Bunny.
