What books should I put on my baby registry?
So far my baby registry is just our big ticket items. I figured I should probably put some lower priced items on there, too, so I thought about some books to start our little library.
What are some good books to put on the registry for our little guy?
Re: What books should I put on my baby registry?
And congratulations!!
I also bought a set of classics for kids. It has books like Black Beauty, Matilda and more that I can't remember right now.

We love Going on a bear hunt, the Spot books, and pretty much anything with a cover and pages (board or paper). Lol

Kids also love the "That's not my..." they're short but anything with textures or flaps or finger puppets are automatically things they gravitate towards.
If I think of it, I'll send you pics of the kids' bookcases.
Also, it's maybe not something that can be added to registry but grandma has had a couple of books customized to add Athena's name and she's enjoyed those too.
And for your reading ease because they are short and rhyme, the Llama Llama books.

I love the Charley Harper board books. He was an artist from my area, and Will loves the illustrations.
