The Little Blue Truck book, DS's absolute favorite at 13 months. He also loves the Poke-A-Dot books, maybe something that they wouldn't have already gotten? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-childrens-book#post-2425558 Mon, 18 Jan 2016 09:37:19 +0000 oliviaoblivia 2425558@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jlm22: that's my favorite too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-childrens-book#post-2425546 Mon, 18 Jan 2016 09:30:17 +0000 mrs.shinerbock 2425546@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We love the Little Blue Truck series here too.

A little dark but hilarious (you can find readings on YouTube - I showed a colleague and she immediately bought for her toddler son)</p> <p>I also love twinkle twinkle it's a what, by A C Brown. Cute story with a good message and pretty pictures.</p> <p>I also love the sunflower sword :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-childrens-book#post-2425501 Mon, 18 Jan 2016 08:45:08 +0000 M4mi 2425501@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Corduroy, Guess How Much I Love You and any book by Mo Willems, my daughter absolutely loves these books, they make for a sweet giggle right before bed time..talk about fall asleep happy.. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-childrens-book#post-2425492 Mon, 18 Jan 2016 08:32:00 +0000 twodoghouse 2425492@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jlm22: That was my favorite book as a kid.

Karen Katz' Counting Kisses is also a fave. Sandra Boynton is a popular pick and while I don't love her, my youngest is obsessed with Barnyard Dance. </p> <p>We got a lot of duplicates of the classics from my shower, so if include a gift receipt if you go that route. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-childrens-book#post-2424928 Sun, 17 Jan 2016 17:01:58 +0000 twodoghouse 2424928@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For baby showers I like:<br /> Moo Baa La La La<br /> Giraffes Can't Dance<br /> On the Night You Were Born<br /> Little Blue Truck<br /> The Wonderful Things You Will Be </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-childrens-book#post-2424904 Sun, 17 Jan 2016 16:19:05 +0000 Alba4 2424904@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My son's repeat favorites are:<br /> Richard scarry's Best Word Book<br /> Little Blue Truck &amp; LBT Leads the Way<br /> Brown Bear Brown Bear<br /> Any Curious George Book<br /> Baby Beluga<br /> Goodnight Moon<br /> Tiki Tikki Tembo </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-childrens-book#post-2424796 Sun, 17 Jan 2016 14:20:05 +0000 youboots 2424796@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LCTBQE: I will wall you. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-childrens-book#post-2424794 Sun, 17 Jan 2016 14:19:32 +0000 LCTBQE 2424794@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@youboots: that really happened in your family?! so cool!! do you mind my asking what city? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-childrens-book#post-2424784 Sun, 17 Jan 2016 14:13:56 +0000 youboots 2424784@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LCTBQE: yes. This is a family favorite. The story is really similar to how my Grandmothers house was moved from the city that was built up around it to a beautiful lot in the country. My Mom &amp; I gave the board books to each household in my family (17) for Christmas with the story of the house in it. I'm going to start giving that for showers, great idea. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-childrens-book#post-2424777 Sun, 17 Jan 2016 14:11:38 +0000 youboots 2424777@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The Giving tree, where the wild things are, Boom Chicca Boom Boom (board book). I loved getting The Night Before Christmas as a board book. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-childrens-book#post-2424770 Sun, 17 Jan 2016 14:09:01 +0000 lamariniere 2424770@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love everything by Oliver Jeffers. How to Catch a Star and Lost and Found are good ones for younger LOs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-childrens-book#post-2424766 Sun, 17 Jan 2016 14:06:41 +0000 LBee 2424766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Giraffes Can't Dance, Little Blue Truck, or Where Do Diggers Sleep At Night are three current favorites. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-childrens-book#post-2424765 Sun, 17 Jan 2016 14:06:35 +0000 jhd 2424765@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our family loves the Little Blue Truck books.

It's so sweet and I think it's a little less ubiquitous than all the other shower classics--The Giving Tree, Madeleine, Olivia, Richard Scarry, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-childrens-book#post-2424753 Sun, 17 Jan 2016 13:57:48 +0000 regberadaisy 2424753@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Steam train dream train is a popular one on here but not necessarily very common. There is one called something blue truck. Lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-childrens-book#post-2424752 Sun, 17 Jan 2016 13:56:51 +0000 sorrycharlie 2424752@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm putting together a baby shower gift to send to someone, via Amazon. I would like to choose a book to add but I'm drawing complete blanks on a good one that she might not have received (her shower did the whole, book instead of a card thing). She's having a boy. Any thoughts? </p>
