My 4 year old would never sit for them, never mind my 7 year old.</p> <p>Love Mo Willems.... My 4 year old is currently loving: Ice Boy, Creepy Carrots and Creepy Underwear, Chalk (no words, you make it up as you view), Berenstein Bears books, Curious George books, and my little man likes anything have to do with monsters or spooky things. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/book-recommendations-for-4-year-old#post-2912329 Wed, 18 Mar 2020 20:47:50 +0000 jhd 2912329@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My boys love the easy readers featuring their favorite characters. Now that he’s in K my oldest can read many of them on his own. </p> <p>I second Mo Willems. We discovered his books when DS1 just turned 5, but they have been a huge hit all year. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/book-recommendations-for-4-year-old#post-2912321 Wed, 18 Mar 2020 18:22:05 +0000 MrsSRS 2912321@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>All of Mo Willems<br /> Horse and Unicorn<br /> Extra Yarn<br /> I Can Read Fancy Nancy series<br /> The Golden Book versions of her favorite movies. I hate them, but my kid adores them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/book-recommendations-for-4-year-old#post-2912317 Wed, 18 Mar 2020 17:51:26 +0000 winter_wonder 2912317@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/0803741219/ref=cm_sw_r_apa_i_GxQCEbHPY46SH" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/dp/0803741219/ref=cm_sw_r_apa_i_GxQCEbHPY46SH</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/book-recommendations-for-4-year-old#post-2912313 Wed, 18 Mar 2020 17:18:32 +0000 Dahlia 2912313@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The whole Mercy Watson series is great! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/book-recommendations-for-4-year-old#post-2912306 Wed, 18 Mar 2020 15:30:14 +0000 josina 2912306@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>There Was an Old Pirate Who Swallowed a Fish<br /> There Was a Coyote Who Swallowed a Flea<br /> There Was an Old Monkey Who Swallowed a Frog<br /> (and more) by Jennifer Ward</p> <p>The Dragon Hunters - (Dragon Brothers) by James Russell </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/book-recommendations-for-4-year-old#post-2912301 Wed, 18 Mar 2020 14:43:37 +0000 erinbaderin 2912301@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For those who like the Book with No Pictures, try My Book with No Pictures - it’s a Mad-Libs version of it. My kids are obsessed with ours. Avoid if your kids are especially potty-humour inclined and you don’t want to read “my name is Poopoo Toilethead” fifty times a day. </p> <p>The Princess in Black is great, as is My Father’s Dragon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/book-recommendations-for-4-year-old#post-2912300 Wed, 18 Mar 2020 14:40:17 +0000 catgirl 2912300@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I second the The book with no pictures! </p> <p>We love Chris Van Dusen books - The Circus Ship, If I built a school, If I built a house, If I built a car, the Mr Magee books. </p> <p>Books from Andrea Beaty - Ada Twist Scientist, Rosie Revere Engineer, Sofia Valdez Future Prez, and Iggy Peck Architect </p> <p>I Dissent: Ruth Bader Ginsburg makes her mark by Debbie Levy </p> <p>The most magnificent thing by Ashley Spires </p> <p>Fancy Nancy Books (not my favorite by DD loves them all) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/book-recommendations-for-4-year-old#post-2912299 Wed, 18 Mar 2020 14:32:22 +0000 karenbme 2912299@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The book with no pictures by BJ Novak (yes, that BJ Novak). I know several 4 and 5 y.o.s that are OBSESSED. The concept is that it’s full of nonsense that the reader HAS to say, stuff like “I like to eat bugs.” We got it for my 4 1/2 yo niece at Christmas and not only did she know it from school, she ran around the room shouting holding it over her head and made SIL read it to her immediately instead of opening more presents. I think they just came out with a sequel where the kiddo can write in their own nonsense too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/book-recommendations-for-4-year-old#post-2912298 Wed, 18 Mar 2020 14:21:09 +0000 MLE81 2912298@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want to order some books for my DD for her upcoming 4th birthday. Any suggestions for what she might enjoy? </p>
