55 Fantastic Books For Children!

Whether you are looking to add titles to your own collection, giving a holiday present, or baby shower gift, this is the perfect list for you!

My mother was a librarian my whole childhood.
This meant her bringing home tons of great books, and me spending countless hours at the library finding new treasures.
My list of ‘must-reads’ was always expanding.
When I became a mom the first few things I purchased were books for my child’s collection.
As we’ve read hundreds, cover-to-cover, I thought my knowledge may be beneficial to share in hopes of helping you find one that you’ve never heard of, or maybe one that brings back a distant memory that you had forgotten!

Without further adieu…
