Probably been done before, sorry, but just wondering... DS is 3 - just. His language is excellent and he absolutely loves books. Has always liked looking at them when not being read to, particularly looking at the detail in the pictures. We have tonnes of books but he has a number of particular faves (e.g. the Julia Donaldson's) which he can literally recite, word for work. I think he's got the capacity to start listening to longer stories, potentially 'chapter' books that run for more than one night. But I'm wondering if really he is still too young. When did you start reading longer books to your DCs and what's a good place to start? He's quite visual, so I think something with some pictures at least would be good. Roald Dahl?
