Find great book suggestions for children straight from mothers suggestions. Since my kids were little I started pickup up books for our home library since I was terrible at remembering when library books are due. So nine years and four kids later we have quite the library. Below are some of our favorites from over the years along with some additions from my friends. I asked my friends which books were their favorites and checked them out.
We also just added just added these Inspirational Nursery Books to our collection. They are books that have been really thought out to help improve self image. An each book has been scientifically thought out. What I like most about them is the happy simple messages shared. They are perfect for ages 0-7. You can learn more here.
Looking through the list, a few of the books are chapter books. For my family we started a tradition where we would read the chapter book as a family and then we would watch the movie. Hopefully you should find a few book suggestions for most children’s ages. So here is some fresh suggestions of 50 great children’s books to add to your own library or check out next time you’re at the library. Happy reading.
