Please can I have some recommendations for books for 1 year olds - something that DD will enjoy and won't be a one-hit-wonder!

Brilliant! Thanks for so many suggestions: keep them coming as I'm sure lots of us are looking at Christmas shopping for a little one for the first time with trepidation as well as excitement!

The Tickle Monster, and Bedtime Bear have been good favourites with our DS for about a year now (DH very bored of them now though)
