A modern classic for obvious reasons, but I'm always a little irked by kids books that gender all the animals male.

I have to give this book 5 stars or else my two year old will never forgive me. This is the house favorite of my daughters books.

This made me smile because it was clever.

I never thought I would include children’s books to my Goodreads’ list but here I am. My son loves this book and the message is good: the tiny mouse outsmarted his predators (fox, owl, snake, and the Gruffalo).

The Gruffalo is everything a read aloud should be. It is the one picture book my fourth and fifth graders beg me to read each year, and that's high praise, indeed.
