Mem Fox's website on her recommendations for childrens reading. A handy list to have. XXXJ. I wonder what books others think are treasures for their little one ??

Great list....we have nearly all of them, but there's a few that are new to me. Will check them out. Thanks, Jill x
In our house, Lucy Cousins reigns supreme. I never thought I'd say it, but thank heavens for chain stories and repeat characters. They really and truly become dear friends. Other than that, I've found my little one has a really affinity for experiences and issues books. She likes books to be about something she can relate to; likewise she relates any new experience to something that she has read. Now that she selects her own books at the library we pretty much read anything and everything.
But Lucy really is our homegirl!
