My little guy is now almost 20 moths old and he’s a huge fan of books! Here are some books that my little guy loves… Check them out at your local bookstore or library!
My little guy’s top ten picks:
- Moo, Baa, La La La by Sandra Boynton (this one is fun because of all the animal sounds)
- Chicka Chika A B C by Bill Martin, Jr. (favorite page is the end, we usually tap out all the letters for fun)
- The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle (the board book has holes which is fun for the little guy to interact with)
- Old Hat, New Hat by Berenstains (also his dad’s favorite baby book)
- Tails by Matthew Van Fleet (he loves that this one is a touch and feel one)
- ABC Block Books by Susan Estelle Kwas (perfect for his little hands – plus you get 26 mini books)
- Corduroy’s Day: a Counting Book by Don Freeman (fun to point out the different items)
- Brown Bear, Brown Bear by Bill Martin, Jr. (we usually add animal sounds to this one)
- Dick and Jane’s My First Words by Larry Rupert (this one has lots of flaps that the baby can lift up)
- Spot loves his Daddy by Eric Hill (dad and the little guy loves this one)
Some awesome lists to find more books for your toddler:

- Top 100 Children’s books of all time by Children’s Book Guide
I don’t have a huge budget for books so we utilize our local library to get ones that we want. Plus, libraries often host a story time for kids and they offer a lot of free programs…
Happy reading!
