In My Nest by Sarah Gillingham

This set of board books is adorable. I particularly like In My Nest, but all of the books are great for the toddler and preschooler set. The colors are lovely, and each page has different patterns and textures for little hands to explore. In the middle of each book is a soft felt finger puppet that kids will surely love. Best of all, the pages are thick and sturdy and the puppet is very securely attached, which is important with this age group.

Gossie & Gertie by Olivier Dunrea

Gossie & Gertie by Olivier Dunrea is the standout title in a charming series about several goslings. While all of the books in the series are excellent, I particularly like the way Gossie and Gertie's friendship is portrayed in this book. The illustrations are adorable and the text is simple and repetitive, which toddlers love. There are also a few lift-the-flap books in this series which are fantastic too.

Ten Little Dinosaurs by Pattie Schnetzler

This is a good choice for any parent longing to move beyond the grip of Baby Einstein. Cute drawings and clever rhymes fill this little book. The vocabulary is above-average and the author is careful to use REAL dinosaur names. -Rhiannon
