It’s always a challenge (at least for me J) to choose a right book for toddlers, you spend hours in searching the internet, take advice from friends and family or ask day care teachers what they like most. As a father, I also want the best books for my son and after a lot of research, I have prepared a list of top 40 books for toddlers. I am sharing with everyone to help save some time for anyone who is looking for some good books.
My intention for sharing this list is to just save some time, which I have spent in searching the internet and other mediums, I am not promoting any authors or books, it’s totally individual decision and opinion if they like the list or not.
