Many times parents are overwhelmed by the vast amount of books in circulation. Children’s sections in libraries and bookstores can be very distracting and confusing. As a teacher, I send home book order forms for parents to select books to buy for their child. Many parents are uncertain which books are best for their children. I have complied a group of lists of books to help aide in the choosing process. This list features books that are best for your baby.
