children's books.


Michael Recycle $11.50

I find Christmas to be the perfect time to add to our book collection. These are two I've been eying for this year, although I'd love your suggestions for some tried and true childrens' books.

  5. Oh, I loved the Giant Jam Sandwich as a kid. I totally forgot about it until I read what KJ posted.

    My 16-month-old loves anything by Sandra Boyton, Eric Carle and Karen Katz. She also loves Is Your Mama a Llama and I Love You Through and Through.

    Other personal faves include Harold and the Purple Crayon, Blueberries for Sal, the Giving Tree...

  6. We have Michael Recycle and it's a lot of fun. The text is great and the illustrations are even better - lots to discuss.

    We're also fans of Little Pea and Little Hoot. And anything by Mo Willems.
