7 Great Children's Books to Read As An Adult

Or better yet, thrill your little one and read them aloud.  There is nothing more important to a child's understanding of literature than having a parent read aloud.  Even if the child doesn't see pictures, the parent paints the pictures in the child's mind by simply reading aloud.  There are so many skills a child learns by listening to a parent read on a regular basis.  Make it a night time ritual to read to your little one.  Read on to find a list of other great books.
