31 Must-Have Books For Baby’s First Library

July 25, 2015 by Jackie Cravener

We’ve all heard how important it is to read to your kids, it’s especially important to start early on. Babies might not understand what you’re saying, but every word you say is helping the baby connect with you, grow and develop, and learn from you.

It’s never too early to start reading with children. I couldn’t wait to start on my kids’ library when I first found out I was pregnant, I wanted it filled with books I know they would love and that I even grew up reading. There are so many great choices of kids books today but I’ve gathered up some of the classics that are perfect for starting your very own library.
