I have been tasked with making a children's library for a 6 month old to grow into.

So what books would you include on the best children's bookcase

Off the top of my head; I am thinking

Jolly Postman, Each Peach Pear Plum, Dear Zoo, Dr Seuss, Hungry Catterpillar Peepo, We're going on a bear hunt, the little engine who could, The rainbow fish, paper bag princess, gruffalo

My DSs are 7 & 10 now and have loved sharing this since the youngest was old enough to point at his choices.

ten little fingers and ten little toes is nice too. I'm going to spam you now probably as others occur to me over the evening!

what the ladybird heard and monkey puzzle are both popular here with 13 month old. Am sat in bath so can't check right now but I'm sure there are other great ones we enjoy reading that aren't yet on your list. Oh, I know: no matter what and Stormy weather by debi gilori. I will watch other contributions with interest, I'm fed up of getting crap books from library.
