Or even better, why almost every kid in America wants to try green eggs and ham for breakfast? Who is this infamous Dr. Seuss that has seemingly taken over our elementary lesson plans and turned to bewitching our kids into wanting to read?

You only have to mention Phillip Pullman (His Dark Materials) or J.K.Rowling (Harry Potter) to see what we mean. There is a long tradition of children's books being read and loved by adults, so why not see what's available?

It is one of those children's picture books that will introduce in a comical and laughable way a problem that is very common to many children but difficult to change.

My favorite childhood novel was Francis Hodgson Burnett's classic The Secret Garden. I think at the time I was drawn in by the mystery of the secret and my fascination with wild, unkempt English gardens.

The book frolics with the characters that children love: the little pig, tortoise and hare, the ugly duckling and mad hatter.

If you would like to introduce your child to science fiction, then perhaps there is a book I'd like to recommend to you. It's one that I own and it is one that I would have my children read, to help open their minds and expand their thoughts.

If we buy one which is too complicated, all they do is end up scribbling while coloring in the scene, or they get frustrated because they can't solve the puzzles. That's why there is one book series that I really love and enjoy, and think it is just great for kids.

And it seems that everything has now changed. Today, there are other cartoon characters that our kids are growing up with.

It is indeed one of the best children's books that I have found for ages 2 to 3. The book like many children's books is quite short, only about 15 pages.

His doodling during class prompted a fellow student to suggest he become an artist instead of a professor. Already an established author at that time, he changed his focus and worked in advertising for many years until WWII saw him producing movies for the war effort. In the latter years of the war he started to write & illustrate children's books with such appeal to children that he was commissioned to write a primer using the basic 200 vocabulary words.

The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett is really about the transformative power of finding "passion" which gives meaning to life. The author's writing is very vivid, and the words jump off the pages and transport readers into the story where they become a participant versus a passive observer.

Reading aloud gives you time together and your child can ask questions about the story you are reading if needed.

Dr. Seuss trivia should start with the fact that Seuss was really his middle name, and that his full name was Theodor Seuss Geisel. A great point for a Dr. Seuss quiz is the origination of the pen name.

The spirit of the original story is cleverly revealed by the re-gifting of a turnip by a well-intentioned community of animals. The classic unfolding of the story of the self-less generosity of these forest friends is a special treat to be shared.

Shahverdian in her debut work leads you on a romping journey to planet Earth with Bootsie, Tank, Ralph, and the irresistibly sweet Baby Girl.

I am thrilled about this awesome children's book! Far too many of these "Bible Stories" books geared for kids are boring and predictable.

Wizards, witches and sorcerers often have the power to manipulate one or more of the natural elements, control mystical energy supposedly present within the human body and many stories strongly feature the mysterious power of the subconscious mind.

Windows of opportunity exist to share important life lessons through literature. Children of all ages can respond and grow with very little prompting when a caring adult is willing to share a story.

Rowling's Harry Potter series. As a creative writing major, I've found some interesting parallels in her work, which explores the human condition, the struggle between good and evil, and the propensity as human beings to act in the face of adversity.

There are so many children's books on the market that really are not so great, and some are on the shelves because of the author's stardom or the author's connections into the publishing business. Still, as parents we know the difference, and yes, I think our kids do too.

From the millions of children's books out there my 8 year old's grandparents chose "Why Eating BOGEYS Is Good For You". It looks like they struck gold though because as soon as the envelope was ripped off, he (Ben) couldn't put it down.

Because a father was always training his children, a young lad takes off on his own to have fun at fishing! But when he goes near the lake, he is captured and imprisoned--beneath the water!

A birth, a blessing, an old piece of wood and a powerful Lector with two prodigious apprentices - four secrets kept for thirteen years.

I have all of the Harry Potter books. What is wrong with me - none are written by an American Author. I am an American, you know. J.K. Rowling is from the UK and probably richer than the Queen of England. This is CRAZY! Not to knock J.K. Rowling's writing gift and not to sound prejudice but Americans who purchases children books need to purchase books written, sold and published by Americans.

It opens with Umalik and Aariak, brother and sister, making for a large cave where there are drawings on the walls of bison and deer and other animals too. Many of the pictures are drawn by the girl, Aariak, for she possesses magical powers, because the animals she draws are attracted to the cave, making them easier to hunt.

"Undersea Party" is a book that is accompanied by an electronic voice changer. It's a little battery powered microphone with SpongeBob on the top and three buttons on the handle. (It did come with a battery) The buttons change your voice to Sponge Bot, Scary Pants, or Bubble Boy. The voices are not labeled on the voice changer, but the book tells you which button is which.

Children's author and illustrator MJ Daley-Prado saw a need for a strong, young, female character and Pinky fits the bill. This empowering story is geared for audiences aged 4 to 9 and will also appeal to older children.
