Ages 0 to 2
- Little Fur Family
- By Margaret Wise Brown
1946
It's hard not to love this strange, trippy, but eminently sweet book about a family of disparate species united by the fact that they're all fuzzy. (And so is the cover that binds them.)
- Night and Day
- by Hervé Tullet
1999
A cutout peephole in this playful book's cover tunnels throughout the pages, revealing that opposites and pairs like "hot/cold" and "grown-up/baby" all have something in common.
- Tails
- by Matthew Van Fleet
2003
Its coverage of popular posteriors in wildlife is a refreshing departure from typical baby-book fare. Sturdy board pages feature textured creatures you can touch and feel, scratch and sniff, and more.
- Counting with Wayne Thiebaud
- by Susan Goldman Rubin
2007
The artist's edible-looking pictures illustrate each number, from a lone piece of pie to four frosted cupcakes to, finally, an infinite jumble of gumballs.
