There are some shorter Julia Donaldson ones - Tales from Acorn Wood. Neither of my boys rated them much though.

DS2 is 20m and his current favourites are

Wow Said The Owl
This is the Bear and the Picnic Lunch
Goodnight Moon
Apple Tree Farm series
Hairy McClary series

Meg and Mog are fab, I think both JD and JK are a bit long for that age.

yes we're library members... was wondering about Julia Donaldson as we have room on the broom and the gruffalo but she gets bored before the end - are there shorter ones?

Anything by Julia Donaldson or Judith Kerr generally does down a treat, but some lesser known books that DD has loved since that age are:

Tatty-Ratty
Mucky Pup
And The Fabulous Flapdoodles

Is she a library member?
