knitnat Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 I think I am putting this in the wrong place, but it follows the The Book Depository thread. I love childrens picture books and have noticed that I don't know some of the authors listed by this site. Can anybody out there in bcf point me in the direction of their fav childrens picture books (FYI: I have a 6yr old boy, 4 yr old girl and a 4mth old girl) As I mentioned in the other thread, there is no shipping charge from this company so makes it worthwhile buying from them!...though with the way the $A is going at present......

Michelle Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Moved to the YP Zone, as it's really about suggestions.. but if I understand correctly, you want suggestions that you can purchase from here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knitnat Posted October 9, 2008 Author Share Posted October 9, 2008 Yes that is correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michelle Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 The Tiger Who Came To Tea is a popular book, and both my 9 year old and 4 year old LOVE Charlie and Lola. Other than that, there's a lot to look through! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poppy Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 For pre-schoolers, I can recommend The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle ( has holes in the book where the caterpillar has eaten through the food), Where's Spot? by Eric Hill (kids love Spot books - it has lift-up flaps), Each Peach, Pear, Plum by Allen Ahlberg, There Was An Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly and The Tiger Who Came To Tea.

knitnat Posted October 9, 2008 Author Share Posted October 9, 2008 Love the hungry caterpillar, spot and charli and lola (we only have one at present though) The others sound interesting...we have shelves of childrens books, I've listed only a few on my librarything thing, but always room for more good ones!

bookwormmum Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Kez Gray's Daisy books are a favourite here, especially Eat your Peas. We also liked Wendel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icecream Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 (edited) My 19 month old adores Charlie and Lola, and also In The Night Garden. She loves the touch and feel and lift the flap books. My 6 month old is just starting to look intently when I read to her and loves anything with bold coloured pictures. They both adore books with baby faces in, but I don't think we own any picture books. I could be wrong. My eldests favourite book for a while has been one called Baby Says Love You. It is part of a series and she reads it every bedtime. Edited October 9, 2008 by Icecream Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christie Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 When I was younger I read- Not Now Bernard!, Little Rabbit Foo Foo, Dear Zoo, Dr.Dog, Hairy Mclairy and Where the Wild things are! I loved them all they are interesting, funny and catchy and I used to go around singing them to myself in the Supermarket especailly Little Rabbit Foo Foo! But I got to say Not Now Bernard is defiantly my favourite! Hope I've helped! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
