1.Each Peach Pear Plum (Viking Kestrel picture books) by: Allan Ahlberg May 27, 1999
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £4.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £3.94 You Save: £1.05 (21%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £1.23
Such a lovely board book and in my opinion it's perfect for babies and toddlers of any age really. It's especially good for reading before a daytime nap (or any winding down time) as the beautiful rhymes and gentle illustrations can be quite soothing. My 2 year old daughter loves it and I highly recommend it. Buy it and you'll soon see...it will come out from the bookshelf time and time again.

I bought this book from all the rave reviews.. but was surprised at what an stereotypical, 50's fairy-tale of a family it conveys.. the baby peers through the holes in the pages to see his mummy and daddy happily sleeping together, mummy making porridge, daddy bringing coal, grandma hanging washing etc etc. If like me, you don't live in a house like this, you may find it a tad nauseating. The illustrations are lovely, but my 15th month old is more interested in the more colourful 'there was an old woman..' and Spot.

I read this book for two children I was babysitting on Saturday night. I think I enjoyed it more than them! What a fab idea, perfectly written and illustrated. I'm going to be buying this for all the children I know this Christmas.

If you don't know this story, it's about a couple of skeletons and a dog skeleton that live in a dark, dark cellar and venture out to scare people during the dead of night. Not a very good story for a bedtime reader you might think! In fact, the story is very funny and not at all scary and so makes an excellent bedtime reader. It also makes an excellent early reader, because as well as the story narrative, the skeletons engage in some very funny dialogue and jokes in the pictures. These can only be appreciated by older readers. A brilliant book. Very highly recommended

5.The Puffin Book of Five-minute Stories by: Perrault, Margaret Mahy, Allan Ahlberg, Dick King-Smith, Adele Geras, Vivian French, et al September 24, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £0.12
I bought this book for my two boys who are six and seven years old, it looked great to me. Unfortunately after reading a few of the stories my boys said the book was just plain boring! Maybe it would be better suited for girls??? there are so many lovely books out there and I liked the idea of having lots of different stories all in one book, but it didn't work this time !!!

6.Cops and Robbers (Picture Puffin) by: Allan Ahlberg September 30, 1999
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £5.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £3.59 You Save: £2.40 (40%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £0.01
This is an outstanding book for children, with fascinating, detailed illustrations and a beautiful rhyming flow to the story. My 3 and a half year old daughter insists on me reading it to her whenever I am on bedtime story duty. Look out for Grandma Swagg on the final page, pinching sausages!

7.The Jolly Christmas Postman (Viking Kestrel picture books) by: Allan Ahlberg, Janet Ahlberg September 30, 1999

I thought that the Jolly Postman couldn't be beaten, but this wins hands down. Absolutely brilliant read, great rhymes, 'interactive' in the sense that the children get to open the letters themselves. Recommended without a doubt. My children love it!

I read this book over and over when I was 6 or 7 (20 years ago), and still remember several of the poems off by heart. I would recommend it to any parent trying to encourage their children to read.

This book is an absolute classic from my primary school years - it has poems in that are real for any school kids! I loved this book and Miss Butler! Pure classics!
