I just realized I don't have any great books in my stash. Please recommend your faves - I'm hoping to order from Amazon or may do B&N in store. TIA

Mo Willems is a huge hit with both of my kids -- the Pigeon books as well as Elephant and Piggie. DS will sit and "read" various Elephant and Piggie books over and over :love5:

I so love "Little Blue Truck" - it is so darn cute and is fun to make the animal sounds with my 2 year old, along with the truck sounds he loves so much. Plus, it has a good message about helping each other out.

Mo Willems books are also starting to become a hit with DS but he prefers anything with a motor over animals still at this stage, generally.

My kids loved "My Truck is Stuck", "Silly Sally" and this version of "Down by the Station":

There are so many good books, though - it is hard to choose a few!

I agree on the Mo Willems books ... The pigeon books and Leonardo the terrible monster
