Children’s Books We’re Digging

After writing a post about our daughter’s book ledge wall in her bedroom, a few readers asked for a list of the children’s books on her shelf. I definitely giggled a little bit out of delight at the opportunity to write a children’s books post. We LOVE books at our house.

We love to change the book ledge display with the seasons and holidays. It’s a great way to keep our selection fresh and interesting. But our standby book collection currently includes these:

1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 / 7 / 8 / 9

How We Choose Books

How to choose children’s books is a great question! Most of our very favorite books were gifted from my sister. She has a knack for picking books our kids love time and time again. It’s amazing.

Another great resource is the local librarians. Our librarians typically have great recommendations. We tend to leave with WAY too many books! I love it though, because it feels like Christmas every time we bring home a new stack of books.

Last but certainly not least: the book Honey for a Child’s Heart is FULL of amazing book recommendations. If you are ever lacking ideas, this book will definitely help steer you in the right direction.

Other Favorite Books (not pictured)

Our stash of books spills well beyond these three ledges. Here are a few more of our favorites:
