Top Ten Favourite Picture Books
The Paper Bag Princess by Robert Munsch
Every little girl needs this book! This princess does not need saving. Instead, the prince does! When she does indeed do just that, instead of being grateful for saving him he tells her that she is a mess and to come back when she is dressed like a "real" princess. Her response to him is perfect and a good lesson for every girl that looks are not all that, and it's really what someone is like at their heart that matters most.
Love You Forever by Robert Munsch
Another Robert Munsch book, and this one is for the boys (although my girls enjoy it, too). It's all about the love that a parent feels for a child and vice versa.
Guess How Much I Love You by Sam McBratney
Another great story about the love between a parent and child.
Click, Clack, Moo: Cows That Type by Doreen Cronin
This book is hilarious! My kids love it.
The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle
We loved the caterpillar's metamorphosis!
Amelia Bedelia by Peggy Parish
This was a favourite from MY childhood. My kids love her, too. She takes everything literally, and it's so funny!
Are You My Mother? by P.D. Eastman
This is a favourite Dr. Seuss book!
Little Mommy by Sharon Kane
I never liked dolls as a kid, but I loved babies! This book was one of my favourites.
Make Way For Ducklings by Robert McCloskey
I loved this story of how Mrs. Mallard gets her ducklings to their new home (with no help from Mr. Mallard, who conveniently is "off" for a week!).
Caps for Sale by Esphyr Slobodkina
I love how the peddlar outsmarts those mischievous monkeys!
