Comments on: The Ultimate List of the Best Picture Books, Endorsed by Kids And Parents https://happyyouhappyfamily.com/best-picture-books/ Wed, 19 Apr 2023 16:44:30 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.8.3 By: Ashley https://happyyouhappyfamily.com/best-picture-books/#comment-45942 https://happyyouhappyfamily.com/?page_id=11350#comment-45942 What a great list! We have read many and I am going to search for some more!
Another to add to your out-of-print list is The Laugh Out Loud Baby by Tony Johnston. I got it out of the library once and have looked for a used copy on every used bookstore outing I go on. It is a lovely laugh-out-loud story of community and celebration.

You hit on almost all of my favorites as well. I would like your thoughts on Drew Daywalt’s books The Day the Crayons Quit and The Day the Crayons Came Home.

Stars Bill Cranston, voices of Sam Rockwell, Danny Devito, Helen Miren, Angelina Jolie… a couple of liberties taken with the story but guess what, it’s based on a true story! And the real Ivan went to live at Zoo Atlanta and we live in Atlanta, so that was super cool for the kids to learn.

(Chapter books). And she can’t get enough. Such a wonderful way to introduce kids to a very different culture and way of life.

Our 18mo old loves Mr Brown can Moo and all the fun sounds in it. (It’s been read daily for about 6mo now).

I can’t believe I haven’t read several of these. Looking forward to trying the chapter books especially ! Hoping they will help my daughter venture away from fairies and ponies just a little.
Variety is the spice of life!

One of our faves is All the ways to be smart. I think it’s fairly new. You’re right, it’s one we never get sick of and that’s a precious thing indeed.

By: Gail Przeclawski https://happyyouhappyfamily.com/best-picture-books/#comment-8100 https://happyyouhappyfamily.com/?page_id=11350#comment-8100 “One” by Kathryn Otoshi. I think it is the perfect book about how to deal with bullying. I am a retired Media Specialist and every class I read it to, you could hear a pin drop. They hung on every page. And my grandkids love it too. Great message, beautifully presented.

They definitely have some amazing books that I would have added to this list. As a parent to 7 and having fostered a lot more as well as volunteered in schools, Several of their books are way more interactive and hold a child’s attention much better.
