The book has a sweet ending, wiping away the fears of young readers. My daughter thinks it’s hysterical to go against his wishes and continue turning the pages, making a huge mess along the way. He begs the reader to stop turning the pages, because he’s worried about facing the monster at the end. Grover, of Sesame Street fame, narrates this book, warning the reader of the monster that is hiding at the end of it. This classic was a favorite of mine when I was younger, and many years later, it is now one of my daughter’s favorites as well. The Monster at the End of this Book Written by Jon Stone and illustrated by Michael Smollin What starts as a nice bedtime story is quickly interrupted by the appearance of a rogue crocodile! What can be done to stop him from wreaking havoc on the story? Kids will love chasing him through the pages. Open Very Carefully: A Book with Bite Written by Nick Bromley and illustrated by Nicola O’Byrne The same team paired up again for the sequel Please Open This Book. The funny text is paired with fun illustrations, making this a book you will want to read aloud over and over again. As you continue past the warnings, you unleash a pack of monkeys that wreak havoc on the book. This book gives you lots of warnings not to open it. Warning: Do Not Open this Book Written by Adam Lehrhaupt and illustrated by Matthew Forsythe Each turn of the page brings new seasonal changes to the tree, providing a wonderful lesson on the seasons.Ĭhristie Matheson also wrote Plant the Tiny Seed and Touch the Brightest Star. Tap the Magic Tree Written and illustrated by Christie MathesonĪs kids tap, touch and otherwise engage with the illustrated tree, it grows and changes. ( Check out my list of winter sports books for more skiing books!) Kids will love interacting with the cute bunny character and watching his skiing antics. In this fun winter book, the reader is encouraged by Bunny to shake, turn and tilt the book to help him have a skiing adventure. Herve Tullet also wrote Say Zoop! and Let’s Play!īunny Slopes Written and illustrated by Claudia Rueda This book may just inspire kids to create some artwork of their own! Each page includes simple instructions that encourage the reader to interact with the dots and colors on the page. This colorful book gives kids an opportunity to explore colors, color mixing and art. My daughter loves feeling like she is controlling the dots, and the ending of the book encourages kids to start the process all over again. The text encourages kids to tilt the book, shake it up, clap and more, as the dots on the page react to their actions. As kids press and tap the dot, more dots and colors appear. This fun book starts and ends with a single yellow dot. Press Here Written and illustrated by Herve Tullet Larry also stars in Don’t Touch This Book and Don’t Push the Button: A Christmas Adventure. Kids will love the idea that they are “breaking the rules” by pushing the button, and they will love all the silly hijinks that happen after the button is pushed. Kids must interact with the book to help Larry get things back to normal. Once the button is pushed, all sorts of chaos ensues. In this colorful book, a little creature named Larry encourages the reader to push a button. This book has been one of my daughter’s favorites from her very first Christmas.

Books that speak directly to them and give them a chance to change the outcome of the story can draw even the most restless readers into some great reading time. Reading to very young children can sometimes be a difficult task.
I love books that “break the fourth wall” and draw kids into the story by making them a part of it.
