Top Books for 1 Year Olds
Goodnight Moon - Margaret Wise Brown and Clement Hurd
A quiet book with a beautiful rhythm. Great for settling the little ones to bed. Unspoken extras, like - find the mouse on every page.
Monkey Puzzle - Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler
The humour and unexpected turns work well. This book is exceptional for reading out loud.
Guess Who? - Pam Ayres
Pam has class. I can't tell you why this book works so well. You can hardly find a copy on the Internet. Simple, but with a puzzle on each page.
Diggers - Usborne Touchy Feely
This book makes the list because the big heavy pages and rough textures match the subject matter. It's rugged.
Counting Kiwis - Kevin and Andrew Ward
An imaginative implementation of the classic 1 to 10 counting book with a New Zealand theme throughout ... Seven kiwis sail in a Cook Strait gale...

Don't forget Yurtle the Turtle by Dr. Seuss, which is, perhaps, the most authoritive book ever written on the subject of turtle stacking
At the holidays we get out the Grinch who stole Christmas. You can read it with gusto and pace, the rhymes never go out of date.
