    DD loves Dear Zoo, she loves making the animal noises and opening the flaps. We all love the Hairy Maclary books, DD has us read them to her over and over again.

    Yep, I agree, MemFox is great, DD loves Possum Magic. And Pamela Allen's books are pretty good for young kids too, lots of rhyme and repatition. I can tell you the Pear in the Pear Tree book word perfect.

    Oh yes I forgot Pamela Allen! As Lilias said anything with repetition and rhyming is great, my girls both loved Time for bed and could recite it long before they could read!

    Ooooh yeah DS also loves the "that's no my....."books also. I love them too as they are quick & easy to read!!
    Anyone read "the story about the little mole, who knew it was none of his business" it's all about a mole & someone poops on his head & he goes around trying to find out who it is I have yet to read it to DS, must do that tomorrow night. My sis says all the kids at her school just love it!!

    Oh & Going on a Bear Hunt....that's actually my fav!
