Classics
Harold and the Purple Crayon by Crockett Johnson
We’ve been reading this to our son since he was born. Harold has such
an amazing imagination and he takes us all along into the worlds he has
created.
Andrew Henry's Meadow
by Doris Burn
Another little
boy with a giant imagination. Andrew Henry builds contraptions (and
now so does our son). The illustrations are so detailed we look at
them forever and still see new things every time we read it – great for
cause and effect.
Peter Pan – A Classic Illustrated by J.M Barrie
The adventures of Peter Pan are as timely today as they were when I
read them as a child. My son cannot wait for me to turn the pages and
find out what Peter is into now – even after reading it at least 10
times!
Goodnight Moon – by Margaret Wise Brown
I’ve read this book at least a thousand times. It is still captivating
and comforting and magically lulls a little one right to sleep. And don’t forget
to find the mouse in every picture!
ANYTHING from Margaret Wise Brown is amazing!
Guess How Much I Love You
by Sam McBratney
The Lovely intention of this book is crystal clear: I love you so much
I can’t even quantify it! What could be better than that? The
illustrations are drawn so well it is if you could pat the soft curly
hair of the rabbits. My daughter still says to me that she loves me to
the moon and back.
