Name your favorite children's book!

My sister is pregnant and I want to make her a basket of books for the baby. These are the ones I can think of so far:

Goodnight Moon
Guess How Much I Love You
The Kissing Hand
Green Eggs and Ham


What are some of your or your child's favorites?

Re: Name your favorite children's book!

ANYTHING by Mo Willems. He is a treasure. Leonardo The Terrible Monster is a favorite.. and all of the Pigeon books. His Piggie and Elephant books are great to shelf for the early reader years.

The David Wiesner version of The Three Pigs is HILARIOUS.

The Stinky Cheese Man is funny for when they are a little older

And My Lucky Day by Keiko Kasza is FANTASTIC!

We also love:
In The Night Kitchen
The Little Prince
The Missing Piece
No David!
Love You Forever
The Giving Tree
Where The Wild Things Are
The Kissing Hand
