Best of the Best

Ever wonder what happened to that book your parents used to read to you? It’s still here, still available and ready for a new generation of children.

There are lots of great children’s picture books, but not all of them can be considered classics. Classics are ones that never seem old or dated, regardless of the year they were published. Classics remain in print for each generation to discover. Your grandparents might have read them to you just as you are reading them to your own children. When you find them on a bookshelf or see a familiar illustration, it brings back happy memories and a wistful smile. Whether they’re about pigs, dogs, teddy bears or wild things, these books retain their storytelling power and artistic style years after their original publication so that new generations of kids can discover their wonders.
