Our 4 month old loves the shapes in Peter Linethal's "Look, Look!" as well as the colours and animals in the "Colors by Pantone" board book. We're just starting on some of the BabyLit books too. His absolute favourite, appropriately enough, is "New York Baby". How about you, or your LO?
-
LO absolutely LOVES 'Where Is the Green Sheep?'. She kicks her legs and squeals whenever she gets her hands on the book, and she'll happily lay for ages 'reading' her book.
ETA: she also loves all of the Goodnight books - especially Good Night World and Good Night Zoo.
-
Very hungry caterpillar or buenos noches gorila
-
I love Jamberry! I think my LO likes the Dog book my Sandra Boynton but I try to hide it from her!
-
@Ree723: I'll second that -- we borrowed it from the library and loved reading it. Your LO is adorable!
Our longest-running bedtime board books were probably Good Night Moon, Runaway Bunny, Click Clack Moo and The Big Red Barn. I especially loved the last one because it was so calming at the end.
-
Brown bear brown bear is his fave I think.
-
@Ree723: that's a fantastic photo! It is, of course, essential when reading to have one's legs in the air. Essential.
-
LO will read just about anything, she is 5 months old but we most recently read "I love you more" it's a cute one!
-
@matador84: is your LO bilingual?
LO has perro grande, perre pequena as well as muy ombriento oruga (you can tell i cant spell in spanish)
-
he is only 6 months, but i am a spanish speaker also and i am planning on raising him bilingual.
we have many other spanish books also. some are spanish only, and some are english and spanish....which is nice because then my husband can still read them to him.
-
I don't know if she loves it but I think it is just adorable, "Snuggle Puppy" by Sandra Boynton
-
Brown Bear, Brown Bear and Hippos Go Berserk. He kicks his legs, flaps his arms, and squeals when he sees either. And then he tries eating them
Almost 8 mo old.

@Ree723: Fantastic photo of my LO's bday twin
-
@pregnantbee: we've had some success with Hippos Go Berserk too, but not so far as our LO regarding them as an appetizer!
-
My LO is really into Dear Zoo by Rod Campbell right now. It has a lot of flaps that he loves since he's obsessed with opening and closing things right now. I'm surprised at how sturdy the flaps are.
-
@teaberry: Thank you! It is a great book, isn't it? We got it as a gift and I love it!
@apis: Absolutely essential. She uses her legs to prop the book up whilst reading. It's hilarious!
@pregnantbee: Thanks! Can't believe our little birthday twins are nearly 8 months old, eek! And yes, E tries to eat every book she reads as well!
-
@Ree723: It's crazy that they're almost 8 mos. I still need to follow up on all of the June comments after I posted. In one of the photos he is eating Brown Bear
You're brave for trying-ish for #2!
-
Jamberry is his favourite! It took awhile to get into it, but he loves it now. Brown bear brown bear was an instant love:)
-
My LO is obsessed with Milly the Meerkat & The Very Hungry Caterpillar. He wants me to read them multiple times a night!
-
@sweet-t: Oh, I loved The Very Hungry Caterpillar when I was a kid, I'm going to have to get LO that.
