The best books for children can be hard to choose since there are over 30,000 published each year. It can take a lot of hit and miss to find the great ones, which is why we love hearing which books others have read and loved. Reading the best books can instill a love of reading in your children forever and can help touch on sensitive topics that are difficult to discuss.
Today’s best blog feature, Pragmatic Mom, is sharing with us several of her book lists, totalling over 150 recomendations. This is a great list to save and refer to often!
