Well, if it's for beginners, 'Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?' is a great start. It's easy to follow and the colorful pictures add to the charm. 'Caps for Sale' also has a bit of a fun, make - believe aspect as the peddler tries to get his caps back from the monkeys. And 'Chicka Chicka Boom Boom' with its lively rhythm and the idea of letters climbing a coconut tree is a fun and simple fantasy for little ones.
For beginners, 'The Gruffalo' is great. It has simple but engaging text and beautiful illustrations. It's about a little mouse who outsmarts a scary Gruffalo. Another good one is 'The Snowy Day' which is more of a gentle, wintry fantasy for young kids. It shows a boy's adventures in the snow. And 'Corduroy' is also a nice start. It's about a teddy bear in a department store having his own little adventure.
