Great favourite kids books

"The very hungry caterpillar" is celebrating it's 40th birthday this year and Eric Carle the author/Illustrator is a great author that trancends all kids age groups. His range of titles in baby board books 0-3 introduces colour, animals and shape. His preschool books are now available in different presentation formats such as a new pop-up version of "The very hungry caterpillar" for the 40th anniversary. My particular favourite is "Papa please get the moon for me" which deals with all the different phases of the moon and a little girl who wants to dance and play with the moon (and she does).
