i love you forever

dd likes the rhythm of the text in the Madeline stories, and they're pretty classic!

mine loves Handa's Surprise, brought home from school by dd1, I finally bought it for dd2. It is different and has lasting interest as dd1 also likes it aged 5. If it isn't a classic, it should be.

We love all the ones by the person who did The Gruffalo -

Room on the Broom
Squash and a squeeze
Night Monkey, Day Monkey
The smartest Giant in Town

What I like about these is they are easy to read cos they rhyme!

I think Handas surpeise is a classic!

Its also a great book to make a story sack with!

surpeise?!

surprise

Oh yes, Room on the Broom. Fab.

Beatrix Potter - esp tale of Peter Rabbit, known by ds when he was two as 'the scritch-scratch book' and considered almost unbearably exciting.
All the books mentioned. Definitely Mog.
Fairy stories.

The books with Bartholomew bear, Be Gentle, Go to Bed, Eat Your Dinner, erm I'm sure there are a few more.

Monkey Puzzle by the same people who wrote The Gruffalo.

Pumpkin Soup.

Not classics as such.

My DS loved the "That's not my...." series. ELC I think. Not classics but the most well-read books in our house.

That's not my train/puppy/kitten and possibly others.
