My LO (14 months) is obsessed with books and we want to build up his collection for Christmas. His favorites seem to be anything Elmo and anything with cars/trucks, but he's really content to read anything. Loves to flip through the pages and say "ooh" as if he's never seen the book before!
Any recommendations for must-have toddler books?

My toddler is obsessed with any book that has animals! He loves to go through the pages and make the sounds animals make.

My LO loves trucks too-- Little Blue Truck and My Truck is Stuck! are super cute with nice stories.
I love anything by Julia Donaldson- Snail and the Whale and Room on the Broom are my favorites.
Right now, my very favorite book to read is the Circus Ship by Chris Van Dusen-- the pictures are amazing and the story is so much fun. And it has lots of animals to find!

Horton hears a who. Over and over an over again.
We discovered that if you read the first two sentences & skip a bunch of pages that the storyline still makes sense.

Slide and Find books are E's latest obsession. We have these two and there are more on the Christmas list.
