I don't think you can ever start Dr Seuss too early. A couple of suggestions sent to my Twitter feed: <br />@VickyButcher (Victoria Butcher) Michael Rosen Quick Lets Get Out of Here! AA Milne When We Were Very Young. My Favs growing up.<br />@Dicko1212 A childs garden of dreams by Robert Louis Stevenson<br />@SiClancy (Simon Clancy) Murray Lachlan Young's 9 Dead Williams is terrific for children. If you get the chance to see his poetry for kids show, go. Ace.

She loves the silly rhymes and is requesting that it is read over and over before bed. We've also bought her 'Green Eggs & Ham' which she finds really amusing.
