My DS is starting to show the first signs of interest in books? I have a few but I was wondering if anyone could recommend some for his age?

My babies loved the 'This little baby' one that used to come in the Bookstart packs.

Anything with mirrors generally very popular. The 'That's not my ....' series also very nice.

Bright colours, cardboard, things to touch and feel and play peepaboo with are what to go for. Also some cloth ones they can manipulate themselves.

The Black and White patterns/faces ones are great - we propped them up in the side of the cot and they stared at them for a good while.
The JellyCat cloth books are good - Hello Giraffe, Animal Tails etc - they can chew on them etc
'That's not my...' Series - different textures to poke, lots of interest when they get a bit older
Peekaboo Moo & Dear Zoo - the entertainment is more in the animal noises you make at this tstage, once they get older they'll love doing the flaps
Or just get stuff that you can bear reading, as they won't really care at this stage. Lots of Gruffalo/Tiddler etc in the early days in this house as I quite enjoyed them.
