Any recommendations? Not the "Thats not my..." would rather have something rhyming and with lovely pictures.

"My Cow Book" (Jellycat) was a huge fave with DS from early on, and there's a whole series, My Dog Book, My Pig Book etc. They rhyme and have very bright pics, flaps and bits to grap - they are cloth not board, but they're great.

Peepo is good, it rhymes and is nice and repetitive. It also has nice busy pics to talk about. Each Peach Pear Plum is also good, it's like an I Spy book.

"Frog and Pig" has been a big hit in our house. Also "Oh Dear" and "Dear Zoo".

I have always like 'Dear Zoo' by Rod Campbell. It doesn't rhyme, but is repetitive in a way that babies and toddlers like.
