What are some good books for kids? I know children's personalized books encourage reading, but I'm interested in finding out what parents like to read to their young children. Maybe I can add these selections to my site.

We have found some books that are both educational and keeps the toddler attentive. My toddler is forever fascinated by books by Sandra Boynton. He also seems to like the silly Dr.Seuss books. Thomas, the train books are also very exciting for him. Some unusual books that we liked are "chika chika boom boom", "Word birds for early birds" series , books by Colin West like "Pardon, said the giraffe" and set of 3 by Foster and Erickson like "pink and Blue".Eventhough some of these books are for 5yr olds, our toddler loves them!EnjoyShama
