Books I want to ready with Lazy Baby

We are stuck in a Goodnight, Moon loop at the moment (where that's the only book she wants to have read to her), but I dream of the day of reading a different book to my Lazy Baby. Here's a list of books I am looking forward to sharing with her in the coming years.

Gifts for Baby: Something to Read

This post contains affiliate links.

I read a post somewhere about giving your children four gifts for the holidays, something they want, something they need, something to wear and something to read. I love reading to Lazy Baby and here are some books that on the very long list of books I want to read to her.

Baby Books: 

  1. The Wonderful Things You Will Be by Emily Winfield Martin (affiliate) "From brave and bold to creative and clever, Emily Winfield Martin's rhythmic rhyme expresses all the loving things that parents think of when they look at their children. With beautiful, and sometimes humorous, illustrations, and a clever gatefold with kids in costumes, this is a book grown-ups will love reading over and over to kids—both young and old. A great gift for any occasion, but a special stand-out for baby showers, birthdays, and graduation. The Wonderful Things You Will Be has a loving and truthful message that will endure for lifetime."
  2. Uni the Unicorn by Amy Krouse Rosenthal, illustrated by Brigette Barrager (affiliate) - "Uni is just like all the other unicorns . . . except for one thing: she believes that little girls are REAL. This magical story by Amy Krouse Rosenthal (author of I Wish You More) illuminates Uni’s not-so-fantastical dream and celebrates the sparkle of believing. This charming board book edition will allow the youngest readers to slide down glorious friendship rainbows alongside Uni and the little girl in whom she believes so very much. Be sure to look for the enchanting sequel, Uni the Unicorn and the Dream Come True, available as a hardcover picture book!"
  3. This Is How We Do It by Matt Lamothe (affiliate) - "Follow the real lives of seven kids from Italy, Japan, Iran, India, Peru, Uganda, and Russia for a single day! In Japan Kei plays Freeze Tag, while in Uganda Daphine likes to jump rope. But while the way they play may differ, the shared rhythm of their days—and this one world we all share—unites them. This genuine exchange provides a window into traditions that may be different from our own as well as a mirror reflecting our common experiences. Inspired by his own travels, Matt Lamothe transports readers across the globe and back with this luminous and thoughtful picture book."
  4. Little Feminist Board Book Set by Galison, Emily Klienman and illustrated by Lydia Ortiz (affiliate) - "Mudpuppy's Little Feminist Board Book Set is comprised of colorful illustrated portraits of real women who have made historical impact on the world. Illustrations by Lydia Ortiz and words by Emily Kleinman introduce children to these important people in history with images that are fun for youngsters and also realistic. The Board Book Set includes 4 mini board books (Pioneers, Artists, Leaders, and Activists.)"
