    Isabella's Garden. Beautiful book, very engaging in word and picture.

    Usborne book's are great here, they inspire a lot of learning and intrigue. We have so many and I always want more!

    I love this too, dd1 was given for her first birthday and at 6 now reads it to me. I also enjoy the very hungry caterpillar and Graeme Base books I had then as a kid and now share them with my kids

    It doesn't matter how many books you have they will always want the same one over and over for a while. We generally only use library, so if we are not keen on it only has a full four week life span. The Madeline books I enjoy as does DD, I love the pictures in them.

    One I read in supermarket which liked the other day was by the same author as Gruffalo and called The Highway Rat. My childhood favorite was The Enourmous Crocodile - Roald Dahl. I also think DD is getting to age where would enjoy Dirty Beasts and Revolting Rhymes.
