Baby and Toddler Picturebooks Overview
Picturebooks for the Baby and Toddler age group need to be very short and simple.
Board book versions (provided that they are large enough to display well at a distance) are a good choice.
Read slowly, expressively, and reassuringly. Emphasize the joy of discovery. These little guys haven't been around that long--it's all new to them!
