My twins are turning 3 soon and I'd like to supplement their book collection. They both love books and I feel they're growing out of the ones we have at home. What would you recommend for this age? They currently like Maisy, Topsy and Tim, any recommendations would be very welcome.

The duck books! Great fun. Duck in the truck, fix it duck, hit the ball duck and captain duck. I love reading them to him. He also likes dr Seuss (I hated it initially but it's growing on me).

Check out Oliver Jeffers (author) on Amazon. We love "Lost and Found" best. Also, Julia Donaldson of course, but "The Smartest Giant on Town" is a perennial favourite - got ot for his 3rd birthday, now 4.5 and we must read it at least a couple of times a week still!

All the Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler books are fab; The Gruffalo, The Snail & the Whale, Monkey Puzzle etc. Great eye-catching pics and the rhyming really helps keep them interested.

Winnie the Witch, Charlie and Lola, Kipper, Mr Men, those books about Dazzling Diggers etc that they said were man-porn on Top Gear, Little Red Train books

Grab a load of stuff from local library and see what sticks.
