I'm after some book suggestions for DD please. We have a very vehicle themed bookshelf as her big brother was obsessed with cars, police cars, fire engines. So looking for more obscure ideas for a just turning 2 year old girl. Into animals but always looking to expand into new things.

The Hospital Dog and Detective Dog, Julia Donaldson ones so you know they're good. Old school Beatrix Potter. The Bumblebear, The Cave. I'd recommend checking out charity shops or FB marketplace, you often get bundles of good quality books being sold cheap when kids have grown out of younger stories.

DD has a big brother's book shelves too. She loves Beatrix Potter, Dogs don't do ballet, Colin and Lee (carrot and pea) and the Julie Donaldson / Nick Sheratt books (Hippo has a hat etc.). Take her to a library and see what she likes. DD likes strong rhymes (she's 3 now) and doesn't like her bother's little red train books.

Go to the library and borrow loads. Then just buy the ones she loves 😊
