At the moment DD's got a couple of the That's Not My... range, a couple of the Spot books, a Meg & Mog book, a Maisy book, plus some picture books.

The thing is we've been reading them all for ages now and she seems bored of them. What can you recommend?

There are lots of nice ones in the maisy range. We particularly like Where is Maisy's Panda? Also the Kipper for babies ones are good (simpler than the usual Kipper ones) especially if your dd likes dogs (my ds is obsessed).
Dear Zoo is great, as is almost any board book with flaps.
Also invest in some of the big Richard Scarry books - wonderful pictures and she really isn't too young to start looking through them. Like What do People Do all Day?
Also the Allen Ahlberg baby books - one called the Baby's Directory or something (great drawings of babies eating breakfast, playing, tormenting cats etc), and Peepo! is a classic she should have.
Also some of the Eric Carle - get the very Hungry Caterpiller or Brown Bear Brown Bear What do you See? in board book form. Those ones are EXCELLENT!

Ds loves the Pickle books. Pickle and the Blocks especially.

Try the library, that way you get to test out books and find all sorts of ones you may not have bought. DD has really surprised me with some of the ones she likes.
Only advice is to take out same number of books each time - we take 3 though I think we are allowed 8 but I'd never find that many every time we go!
