Ever felt completely overwhelmed in the library or bookshop when trying to select a good book for your kids? One that they and you will love and that won't sit on a shelf collecting dust after just one read? If you answered yes, this episode is for you. I am talking about prolific authors who write greats stories and whose books are easily available (especially in our part of the world).
We are on the third and final part of our chat about books to read to our kids in that first year and more importantly, curating shelves in this year that will last a lifetime. In Part 1 we looked at what reading aloud might look like when our children are little more than pooping, feeding, sleeping machines and in Part 2 we went into the “why should we read” to these littlest of humans and I gave some recommendations for books that I believe should be on all shelves because they are truly lifelong reads. In this episode, we are going to explore author collections and boxsets that are great for the first year of reading but that will be a staple in your home for decades to come because these are stories that do not go out of fashion.

We're continuing our chat today about books to read to our kids in that first year of their lives and curating shelves for a lifetime. This is Part 2 of a 3 part series that is looking at books for your baby's first year. In Part 1 we looked at what we called the extreme baby months and we touched on the touchy feeling books that your child would want to explore, starting at around that 6 week mark. Today I delve deeply into some books that will inspire wonder and magic in you and your child. As always, this episode is proudly brought to you by overwhelmed adults the world over who have no time for judgement but could do with some help in choosing books for the kids in their lives.

We’re kicking off our show with an excellent question, “What books should I read to my baby during their first year of life?” Now, I’m not saying that I got overly excited by the question or anything but I did create a multi-part episode out of it so you be the judge.
Today we are going to talk all about reading to our kids in that first year and curating books that will last a lifetime. We don't only look at the what to read but also how to read and what we should probably not waste our time on.
