Great list and I agree wholeheartedly that the illustrations have to be fabulous or I won’t buy the book. I am a grandmother and a professional nanny who has read to dozens of children for the past 40 years, every chance I get. I have hundreds of favorites and share lists with young mothers and other grandmas who need suggestions.

Love this list & they were all new to me! :) Can’t wait to find them at our library. Some of our favorites right now are “The Little Mouse, the Red Ripe Strawberry, and the Big Hungry Bear” “Duck & Goose” books & any of the “If you give a Mouse a Cookie” books!

Being a librarian, I must say my favorite book on your list is “The Day Dirk Yeller Came to Town.” I had the privilege of hosting the author Mary Casanova at our library, and she explained how the first line of the book actually came to her in a dream. Great list!
