Eastman's "Go, Dog, Go!" (it's not by Seuss) has been an immense hit with both children around the age of 2.<br /><br />Chicka Chicka Boom Boom! was the best alphabet book we've found yet. I also recommend that one in board book form. I think William requested it no less than a hundred times.<br /><br />Also, Sandra Boynton makes phenomenal board books. <br /><br />And while A.A. Milne's original "The Complete Tales of Winnie-the-Pooh" (skip any Disney stuff) were an immense treat, they're really for age 3-4.Mike Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06279519667020445898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9134844337638432219.post-68235129272507470462012-06-06T07:33:50.631-04:002012-06-06T07:33:50.631-04:00Chicka Chicka Boom Boom and Chicka Chicka 123, The...Chicka Chicka Boom Boom and Chicka Chicka 123, The Complete Tales of Winnie the Pooh, Sandra Boynton books and Dr. Seuss's Go Dog GoMichellenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9134844337638432219.post-42389367794746045012012-06-05T21:03:07.782-04:002012-06-05T21:03:07.782-04:00We love books by Sandra Boynton like Barnyard Danc...We love books by Sandra Boynton like Barnyard Dance, Pajama Time, and Red Hat Green Hat (she has a lot of cute ones). Also, I just borrowed a book at the library that Jadon loved called The Bus For Us by Suzanne Bloom.

The structure is repetitive, which is good for kids' memories, and dotted with exclamations like "holy guacamole!" so the parents aren't bored. Perfect for funny voices.<br />2. "The Woods" by Paul Hoppe<br />A boy loses his stuffed rabbit in the woods and has to be brave and find him. He encounters various supposed scary type guys, who turn out to be friendly. Bedtime book perfection.<br />3. "Knufflebunny: A Cautionary Tale" by Mo Willems<br />Poor Trixie has left her Knufflebunny at the laundromat and mom and dad rush to rescue him. Hilarious! Trixie's weeping meltdown is brilliant. A story about looking after your special toys and not being careless.Audreynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9134844337638432219.post-36069206055254598372012-06-05T20:16:08.395-04:002012-06-05T20:16:08.395-04:00Some other suggestions so far (from people who had...Some other suggestions so far (from people who had trouble posting a comment):<br /><br />Everybody Poops<br />I'll Love You Forever<br />Goodnight Moon<br />Brown Bear, Brown Bear<br />Each Peach Pear Plum (which we have)timandlaurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11999815231602554821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9134844337638432219.post-51978636219164167362012-06-05T19:55:35.864-04:002012-06-05T19:55:35.864-04:00At my house we have read all the Give a Mouse a Co...At my house we have read all the Give a Mouse a Cookie books over and over again.
