What's Your Favorite Book?
I was thinking about buying some new books and I am wondering what are your top 5 "must have" books?
Right now for me, 1. Guess How Much I Love You (brings me to tears) 2. Click Clack Moo, Cows That Type (also brings me to tears...laughing!) 3. Giraffe's Don't Dance (Hilarious!) 4. I Love You Stinky Face (Makes the kids laugh hysterically) 5. Are You My Mother (a favorite from childhood) |
1) Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day
2) The Stinky Cheese Man and Other Fairly Stupid Tales 3) There's a Monster at the End of this Book! Starring Loveable, Furry, Old Grover (there are 2) 4) Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs 5) The Sneetches (Dr. Seuss) Can you tell I grew up in the 80's? Also, Hi, Pizza Man! Where the Wild Things Are Courdoroy All Shel Silverstein books There's a Wocket in My Pocket Matilda The Phantom Tollbooth (older, like 4th grade) |
All of the above mentioned plus my kiddos like the pop up books:
Snappy little dinosaur Snappy little bugs Snappy little jungle Snappy little farmyard |
I LOVE anything by Jamie Lee Curtis. They are fun to read and look at.
|
Eric Carle books
Sandra Boynton books "How do Dinosaurs..." series books okay, that's more than 5;) |
The best book ever written,.. GREEN EGGS AND HAM!!!!!
|
The Magic Hat-Very fun rhyming book
Cowboy Camp-My boys love this one Big Bad Wolf is Good Silly Sally Green Eggs and Ham Most of them are by no means classics, but they are the books the kids want read again and again, and again. I think the big thing is to consider what the kids are interested in. The cowboy camp book is so popular because the little guy thinks he is a cowboy and the kids like the voices I do with the book. Same thing with the Big Bad Wolf book, for some reason I have given all the characters southern voices in that one. For me, voices make all the difference, but I'm sure everyone else does something similar! |
Wow maybe it's just my DC kids then but I was surprised that Chicka Chicka Boom Boom wasn't in here. I have to read this book at least once a week and if the kids had a say in it I'd be reading it every day. Every time that it's kids pick of the stories guess what one of the stories is? :rolleyes:.

I have 4 toddler girls that LOVE this book because the 4 fairies in the book looks exactly like each of them and instead of the character names I use the dc girls names - "Rosies Magical Hide-and-Seek
Your My Little Love Bug Its Naptime, Little One We're Going on a Lion Hunt |
The differ depending on the ages of the kids, but generally, these are hits:
- Chicka Chicka Boom Boom and Chicka Chicka 1 2 3 - Pajama Time and Hey! Wake Up! - Sandra Boynton - Polar Bear, Polar Bear, what do you hear? and Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What do you See? - The Very Hungry Caterpillar - Green Eggs and Ham / Dr. Suess's ABCs / Hop on Pop |
