Good Reads??

I admit that I don't always like to read the same books over and over to my kiddos(although I do it) and our books are getting quite worn, tattered, and pages are missing. I am in the market for some new ideas for books that kids enjoy. What are some good books for kids ages 2-7?  Any favorites that your kids ask to be read to again and again?? My goal is to make a list and look for good used copies at garage sales and thrift stores.

  1. We've checked "May I Bring a Friend?" out from the library and I think it is just absolutely adorable. Fun to read. I'll holler if I think of more.

    I always loves me some Seuss as well.

    Gemma really enjoys the Little Bear books too.

  3. Thanks for the awesome suggestions, the ones we don't already have are going on my list. Josette, I'll have to look into cathswap...I know lots of people who use it, but I never have.
    This is a great start.
