My two-year-old loves books.  I suspect he gets it from me [we established earlier this week that I read a lot of books] because his Dad mostly reads a lot of sports scores… and work email.  But every night before bed, the two of them settle into our big gliding chair and read bedtime stories.

This is a list of our current favorites.  Check out these great books for toddlers:

• Little Blue Truck Leads the Way.  I shared last year that Little Blue Truck was my son’s favorite book.  This is the next story in the series.  Just as good as the first!
• Press Here.  My son loves to push buttons.  All buttons.  Like Buddy the Elf in the elevator.  This book is interactive and really clever.
• Larry Loves Seattle.  Probably doesn’t have the same appeal for my non-Seattle friends, but it’s a favorite in our house.  Colin finds Larry on every page, demanding that we say ‘Larry’ every time he points.
• Where’s Spot.  This lift-the-flap book is just as adorable as the chubby little fingers that turn each page.  It’s a little roughed up after lots of flap lifting, but this was one of my childhood favorites too.
• We’re Going to the Farmers’ Market.  Gorgeous & colorful pages.  Colin loves to point to each vegetable and ask us to say the names.  I’m all for teaching kids about real food & farmers’ markets!
• Five Little Fishes.  Cute counting book.  Colin loves it, but I try not to think too hard about why the little fish are disappearing [going to ‘play’ with a shark?]
