Books for Toddlers

As you can imagine, I hope that Little K shares my love of reading when he is older. He is currently 20 months and generally finds the Touch and Feel, mono-syllabic books boring now. His current favourites have just changed - it was "Me" by Emma Dodd for ages, alongside Tinga Tinga's Sunrise to Sunset collection. He has been less interested in these recently since the arrival of "Room on the Broom" by Julia Donaldson. I haven't reviewed any of his books before but this is the first so far:

Room on the Broom

by Julia Donaldson, Axel Scheffler

"The witch and her cat are happily flying through the sky on a broomstick when the wind picks up and blows away the witch's hat, then her bow, and then her wand!  Luckily, three helpful animals find the missing items, and all they want in return is a ride on the broom.  But is there room on the broom for so many friends?  And when disaster strikes, will they be able to save the witch from a hungry dragon?"

 My 20 month old loves this. So much so in fact, I virtually know it by heart, as I've had to read it so often! Fortunately it is very well constructed with lovely rhythm and rhyme so it's not as much of a chore as some previous favourites. Definitely one I'd recommend for babies/toddlers.
