What books have you and your kids, ages 3-6, been delighted to read to your kids for the first 20-50 times?!
For 3-6 year olds: the book with no pictures, if I built a house, Snatchabook, the circus ship, Lou, Color blocked, Giraffes can’t dance, what would Danny do, have you filled a bucket today
For the younger kids (2 and under): The belly button book by Sandra Boynton. Go Dog Go. Sheep in a jeep.
What else is out there?

My 4-year old is obsessed with the Elephant & Piggie books so I bought him the whole set. He loves “reading” the books - basically memorizing from the pictures and big bubble text but it definitely is a great entry point to learning how to read.

Fun question!! We have girls ages 2 and 5. Our 5 year old loves any Franklin the turtle book and our 2 year old actually listens to them some too, they love any curious George book although some are a bit long for the 2. 5 also loves Madeline books.
2 loves all the Hello World books, we have camping, ocean, and snow.
If your kids happen to both be girls we also love the book Sisters First. -
