Currently reading this to my four month old every night but wondering if anyone had suggestions for alternatives to mix it up a bit?

Criteria:

Short - similar length to guess how much I love you
Ideally a board book
Has a lovely message (the more warm & fuzzy the better)

Thanks in advance!

The 2 books DS has kept since he was little are Guess How Much I Love You, and Owl Babies, so maybe that one if it's still about.

Was also going to suggest On The Night You Were Born. The Crown On Your Head by the same author is also lovely.

Emma Dodds animal books especially "Together" - the otter one. You'll find a reading on YouTube if you want to check it out. I found it in my local library but loved it so much I bought it.

Sometimes I Like to Curl Up in a Ball by Vicki Churchill

But go to your local library and borrow lots of books, don't just read one again and again (in a year or two your DC will be insisting you do that so take advantage now of being able to choose whatever you want to read). Also, at 4 months old now is probably time to introduce books like the 'That's not my...' series which has textured panels for little hands to explore.
