What books are your three year olds reading?

[Babymay1]

Hi, just wondered what books your three year olds were into? We read the same books over and over again. She's just turned three and really likes her Charlie and Lola books and a few others we keep repeating. Just wondered what yours were reading?

Anything by Julia Donaldson is a winner. He also likes classic fairy tales like three little pigs.

Anything with dinosaurs in it! Strongly advise a trip to the library, returning with an arm-load of random stuff! Some you'll like and seek out the same author, and others you won't.

Thank you both for your posts x

Princess Poppy, Hairy Maclairy, Lettice the rabbit by Mandy Stanley, Winnie the Witch, Katie and the art gallery books by James Mayhew, Percy the Park Keeper, lots of Julia Donaldson, Milly Molly Mandy, Mr Benn, The Large Family, Little Bear, This is the Bear, lots of Jez Alborough, Maisy, Elmer

Charlie Stinky Socks books
Emily Brown books
Dr Seuss
Oliver Jeffers

Would second recommendation for the library, and also suggest your local charity shop. We often find new authors there, and then reserve other books by them from the library.

Don't discount non-fiction at this age, my ds loves to look through my wild flower book and the eye witness guides are fab:

He spends ages asking me what noises the instruments make, what they're called and how big they are etc.

hmm, link fail:

The Wonderwise books are also really cool. The Book People sometimes do a set of 20 of them for about £15.
