Several parents have told me that they don't actually need to buy their baby any books as they have been given so many as gifts. The teacher in me feels really happy to hear that people are giving books as gifts as there is no doubt that the best chosen books can make the most loved gifts. However I believe this also is a bit of a hit and miss way to create your child's book collection.

Reading MUST be fun and the best way to ensure it is fun, is to ensure you have some very treasured favourites in your collection.

Baby book ideas from other parents can help guide you in your selection of books for your baby and about your baby.

Each family has their own favourite books. Books that their baby just loves and books they have found really useful to learn all about having a baby.

I hope the following lists of well loved and recommended baby books will help you find the right books for you and your family.

Please send us your lists so we can add them to our site.
