We all love Goodnight Moon, but chances are someone else will already gift that book. This list is a focus on awesome books that will take the baby into toddlerhood, and are probably not already on that baby's bookshelf.

I highly recommend the entire Biscuit series of books, but I do recommend you start with 'What is Love, Biscuit?'. It's a special way of talking about love. It's even more special when the reader adds a Biscuit 'woof' here and there.

This rainbow book is extra special, as a different color ribbon pops out of each page, making a rainbow along the way. Add some voices for each of the animals, and this book will easily last through kindergarten!

Another great books series to add to a baby's collection. the 'That's Not My...' series are sensory board books that teach word association with textures.

Another great sensory board book, this book teaches babies all about rescue vehicles. another great series , that also offers books, for sea animals, trucks and more!

Start a baby on their Dr. Seuss collection with a whole set of board books!

Another great winner for any new book collection is the incredible Eric Carle! There is so much more to his work than 'The Hungry Caterpillar'!

What kid doesn't love the books with the button sounds?! And this one is Eric Carle!

An ABC musical button book. Definitely!
