A's favourite books(top 25) at 20 months

A loves reading. I have been thinking of documenting her favourite books for a long time now. When she will grow old and look at this list, I don't know what her reaction will be. But from now on I want to keep a list of her favourites every 6 months. These books are not really in order of preference.  She likes them all so much that I cant decide which one to place where.

1.     Kipper's A To Z: An Alphabet Adventure by Mick Inkpen
    A very creative alphabet book. Its fun to see how Kipper and Arnold take you from A is to Ant till Z is for Zebra. How they keep collecting each of them in a box and in the end they have a mini zoo. Ideal for age > 2 year but my lil one has been enjoying this one since she was 17 months.

2.  From Head to Toe by Eric Carle

 This is one of the first few book I bought for A. Since 12 months, this has been one of her favourites. She remembers what each of these animals does and remembers every single word in the book. This is our favourite amon all the Eric Carles book. The moment she hears the word "gorilla", she thumps her chest, Penguin turns his heads. It is great book to get her moving in different ways. Note that its not a bed time book as it makes my lil one super duper active :)

3. A to Z from Sandra Boynton

  One day A was looking at herself in the mirror and smiling. I said "You are admiring yourself in the mirror just like Aadvark" and showed her this book. Since then it has been her favourite. It has been a very good book for building vocabulary. A learnt words like grinning, frowning etc from it. She also enacts all the actions being done by the animals. I do not like the fact that U is "uglybirds being ugly" and I kind of always try to skip that one. But other than that I just love this book.


4.  Goodnight Moon by Margaret Wise Brown
  This is one of the very famous books by Margaret Wise Brown. I ordered it and When it came I didn't like it. I actually regretted buying it as I really didn't see any story line. Any ways, I read it to A. and She loved it. Not really a goodnight book for us, as she jumps when the cow jumps over the moon. She sits with her hand folded on an imaginary chair. Always tries to find something new in that dark green room. And just loves the old lady whispering hush.  Now I love it because A simply loves it.
