Expert Commentary
“Although these are picture books, these stories are ones your littles will go back to over and over again. My children love books with rich illustrations; even as they get older; they still light up for beautiful illustrations and seem to appreciate the books even more. This genre is likely the first they will ‘read,’ memorizing words and reciting the book back to you. For under 4 and up to 7, I recommend anything by Eric Carle or ‘If You Give a Mouse a Cookie.’ Note: ‘The Day The Crayons Quit’ is a fun book, but be sure to be ready for an intro to sarcasm.”
