Just one?!? It would HAVE to be Big Pumpkin by Erica Silverman. Over 10 years of being a preschool teacher and every time I see it I smile and sing the story. Brings back so many memories. I love the rhyme the simple story of team work. I'm also a HUGE fan of the 3 series above. I love it when I find a book thats fun to read. elmymthompson@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteNot quite as young of a croud..but I LOVE Charlotte's Web! My kids love it, too!
ReplyDeleteThese are some of my favorite children's books! In fact I recently introduced my kids to the pigeon series and they love it! But if I were to read a children's book on my own, I would read "The Stinky Cheese Man". So funny! And I don't know if it qualifies as a children's book, it is a picture book, but my husband and I also enjoy "Walter the Farting Dog". My husband's name is Walter. :) rebolsen at gmail dot com

My favorite is "Oh the places you'll go" by Dr. Seuss. I absolutely love different messages throughout the book. It's great for kids and adults alike.
ReplyDeleteRight now (and probably for forever) my favorite children's book is Goodnight Pond (yes Pond, not Moon). It is a parody book of goodnight moon and it crosses with Doctor Who. A favorite of everyone in our house!!
ReplyDeleteOh, there are so, so, SO many good ones out there. I love the nice, classic "Good Night Moon" and "Harold and the Purple Crayon" for really young ones, and the "You are Special" series by Max Lucado, for those a little older, so sweet.
ReplyDeleteWe love Dr Suess and Shel Silverstein! We are starting to read Roald Dahl stories!

I loved Harold and the Purple Crayon when I was growing up.
ReplyDeleteA book that reminds me of my childhood is Imogene's Antlers. I found a copy on Amazon for my daughter. Such a cute book!
ReplyDeleteSince I was a kid my favorite book has been Oh Were They Ever Happy by Peter Spiers
ReplyDeleteI love children's books! My husband hates when we go thrifting, because I head straight to children's books, and my collection is quite large. :) My absolute favorite kid's book is "Each, Peach, Pear, Plum" by Allan & Janet Ahlberg. I memorized it and even "read" it to my sister before I could read.
ReplyDeleteWell, since I have 4 boys, we like to read the Diary of the Wimpy Kid series.
ReplyDeleteCamibean@gmail.com

ReplyDeleteAny of the Robert Munsch or Dr. Seuss books we love! I was a teacher but now stay at home mom and we love love to read together:)
ReplyDelete"The paper bag princess" is one of my favorites. I also really love "Panda Cake" but it's out of print. So sad.
ReplyDeletestrattonchile(at)gmail(dot)com
DeleteWow, Skippy Jon Jones and Pigeon books are high on my list of favorite children's books, but my all time favorite is Frog and Toad. I love to read them, and I love to read them with my boys.
ReplyDeleteI love the Amelia Bedelia books! I never tire of them. My 6 year old has read Where the Wild Things Are dozens of time and always enjoys it as if it were the first time reading the story. Now that my almost-two year old can focus his attention a bit longer, the Mo Willem books are a huge hit with him and we enjoy them too. Lots of great, happy, story-time memories have been, are being and will continue to be made in our home. rodespi@verizon.net
ReplyDelete"Where the Wild Things Are" has always been one of my favorites!
ReplyDeletejennalynicole@gmail.com
I lover reading Dr. Seuss (the anapestic tetrameter.) My three favorites are The Lorax, The Sneetches and Other Stories and One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish. So fun!
ReplyDeletelmz@speakeasy.net
Since having my first child, who is now two, my favorite book has been Guess How Much I Love You by Sam McBratney. This is a very loving book that I hold dear to my heart. A young bunny and father rabbit share all the ways they love one another, with the bunny always trying to out-love his father. BUT, his father always discovers a way to love his son even more. This book reminds me of my childhood relationship with my own dad. He would always tell me that he loved me more than the whole wide world. As I share this book with my son, he always tells me that he "loves me this much" as he stretches out his arms as far as they will go. Gazing into his eyes and giving him a huge hug makes this my favorite book of all times.

ReplyDeleteI have two very favorite books i have always loved and my son loved them when he was younger also and i intend to introduce them to my grandson. They are Mike Mulligan and his steamshovel and where the wild things are. Love them. mjfrose@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteI don't know how I could pick just one... One of my favorites is The Tallest of Smalls by Max Lucado which teaches kids about loving themselves for the way that God made them. We also LOVE Skippy Jon Jones, the "if you give a..." books, Eric Carlisle books, Dr. Seuss books... we are avid readers in our house! When I was younger my favorites were James and the Giant Peach and Indian in the Cupboard - I can't wait until my son is a little older so I can enjoy reading those with him.
ReplyDeleteSo hard to pick just one favorite! My very favorite would probably have to be Horton Hears A Who by Dr. Seuss.
ReplyDeleteI love, " Are You My Mother?" by Dr. Seuss. My daughter loved that book! My best friend gave it to us. I had a long road to becoming a mommy. I do love the Skippyjon books! They are adorable!!
ReplyDeleteCars and Trucks and Things that Go. We have read this book so many times, that we had to purchase a 2nd copy. I love watching my son look at picture after picture completely enthralled by the illustrations. It brings back memories of me doing the exact same thing many many years ago - mrs_white@hotmail.com
ReplyDeleteGot to be the Giving Tree!
ReplyDeleteStand Tall Molly Lou Melon. Has THE BEST message for people to be who they are. The illustrations are great too, very Seussical.
ReplyDeletezilnewt(at)yahoo(dot)come
DeleteHave to say that "A Fly Went By" by Mike McClintock was a favorite of mine as a kid, as well as Dr. Seuss's "And to Think that I Saw it on Mulberry Street." My wife loved "Gordon and the Glockenspiel" and The Velveteen Rabbit" as a child.
ReplyDeleteA couple of books I love now are "You are Special" by Max Lucado as well as his book "Just In Case You Ever Wonder," which makes my wife cry.
One more. My Mom gave my 3-year-old "on the Night You Were Born" by Nancy Tillman for his third birthday. I had not read it before I started to read it for his bed-time story. Bad idea, because it had my crying several times. What a sweet book. I'm almost crying as I type this.
Email is drjohnson.wx@gmail.com, BTW
DeleteI have always loved The Berenstain Bears! My daughter has recently fallen in love with them too and it has been so much fun reading them with her. :) tiffanytalbert04@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteOh man I have so many favorites. In fact my husband teased me about our children's library before we even had kids! I must admit I have been know to read pinkalicious even when my daughter isn't in the room although I do love the giving tree as well!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book as a kid was always "Where the Wild Things Are", by Maurice Sendak. I think I might have read it 100 times in kindergarten alone. :) Unfortunately, my daughter is not such a fan; She prefers "Fox in Sox", by Dr. Seuss.
ReplyDeletebananaweasel@hotmail.com
The current favorite is Fancy Nancy Tea for Two. I love the message of sharing and taking turns, perfect subject for my 4yr old daughter.

ReplyDeleteColdWater2006@yahoo.com
I have my all time old fashion favorites as a child, but what we enjoy as a family now is ANYTHING written by Chris Van Dusen. It all started with the book "If I built a Car" purchased at a Scholastic Book Fair. We now collect anything we can get our hands on. His illustrations are absolutely wonderful and the rhyming words just flow like crazy and are very easy to read. Our very very close second is Candace Fleming with "Muncha Muncha Muncha" and "Seven Hungry Babies" (a great gift for Mother's Day or a Teacher!). jo159@aol.com
ReplyDeleteI love you through and through! It's such a sweet little book.
ReplyDeletetek_girl21@hotmail.com
Oh I have so many favorites... but I LOVE Bridge to Terribethia. I cry every time I read it.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book is "Sam Bangs and Moonshine" (not sure who the author is). My 4 year old's favorite book is the "Octopus Soup" by Mercer Mayer, loads of detailed pictures and no words. My 1 year old loves "I Am a Bunny" by Richard Scary.
ReplyDeleteMy all time favorite is "Love you Forever". It reminds me to enjoy and love even the hardest of times!

The Pigrates Clean Up by Bill Martin...great rhyming story to clean up, brush teeth, wash hair, do laundry etc etc etc....a fun way to get kids to love picking up and taking care of themselves and their things!!! Love this book!

ReplyDeleteWhen I was little it was all about the Ramona books. Now that I'm a grown up (and a teacher) it is so hard to choose. I would have to say Thank You, Mr. Falker by Patricia Polocco. Can't get through it without shedding a tear...or six or seven.

ReplyDeleteI have to agree that it's so hard to choose one but I'll pick Because of Winn Dixie.
ReplyDeletePatti
Time for Bed. I read it to my 7 year old almost every night and now I read it to my 2 year old
ReplyDeleteMy absolute favorite children's book series is Auntie Claus by Elise Primavera. The first book, Auntie Claus, is probably my favorite out of the three in the series. The illustrations are bright, bold, and exaggerated just enough to add that "wow" factor. Most pages have a little something hidden in the picture as well. The story is fabulously done, to the point where those who don't celebrate Christmas will enjoy the book just as much as those who wonder about the mystery of Santa Claus visiting their house every December. Its a feel-good story that can be enjoyed anytime even with the Christmas theme. I just love it!
ReplyDeletePETE THE CAT....my buttons, my buttons my four groovy buttons!!! Eileen DiPietro
ReplyDeleteThis is hard. My kids and I love the Pigeon books and the Skippy Jon Jones books. Both of my kids laugh with every Pigeon books and then endlessly repeat the funny things that Skippy says. And Skippy gets stuck in my head, too.

My kids and I LOVE Mo Willem's piggy and elephant books! Sometimes I even find myself reading them to myself while waiting for my kids finish getting ready for bed! We always have a laugh reading them!
ReplyDeleteNever read any of Nancy Tillman's books until I was pregnant. We were decorating the room in polar bears and penguins so I wanted some books with polar bears to put on the bookshelf. We bought On The Night You Were Born, which I love. But when they had several of her books available at Kohls through the Kohls Cares program, I bought Wherever You Are. This is my favorite book now and read it often. It brings tears to my eyes each time I read it, but I think all mothers would love this book.

All of my children (1 boy, 2 girls; ages 7 mos - 4 yrs) love the Llama Llama series. They have fun rhyming patterns with lovable animal characters. I enjoy reading them, also, because they are the perfect length for this audience...keeping my children's attention from beginning to end. Also, each book teaches a little life lesson (sharing, separation from Mom, etc). Fun reads!

ReplyDeleteI absolutely love anything Sandra Boynton, specifically Moo, Baa, La La La. I love it so much I give it to anyone with a baby :) mommysaves@zippercow.com
ReplyDeleteWhen I was little, I LOVED The Valentine Bears.. I still do, but I don't have it anymore. I'd probably have to buy it off Amazon. It wasn't very popular or well known, but I really liked the pictures and it was a cute story.
ReplyDeleteFor a picture book, my fav has to be Little Quack by Lauren Thompson. The pictures are just so cute! bookwormbaby at hotmail dot com
ReplyDeleteLove the Anna Dewdney books with Llama Llama Mad at Mama being my favorite. Reminds me of my shopping experiences with my kids. :)

One of my favorites is still There's A Monster at the End of this Book... my kids love it too! =)
ReplyDelete"Barn Yard Dance" was a favorite of my daughter's and she memorized it rather quickly. It is still a favorite to read at our house. becksmedley at gmail dot com
ReplyDeleteMy son probably favors The Little Red Caboose (a Little Golden Book) the most right now. He's only three but he "reads" it all the time because he has it memorized. Anything train related goes around here!

It is hard to choose. I used to love to read all of the Fraggle Rock books to my kids but my all time favorite and the one I still have a copy of is Hooray for Diffondoofer Day by Dr. Seuss. You can never have too many Dr. Seuss books. I also love The Places You Will Go.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite children's book is called "The house that stood on Chicken feet."
ReplyDeleteI think Yertle the Turtle would be our all time fave. Love it!
