We picked our favorite children's books for you! 

in good company loves using children's books as cards when attending baby showers or a child's birthday. Here is our unconventional book list so you don't show up with the same book as everyone else. 

 

 

ALL THE WORLD
Written by Liz Garton Scanlon

Why we like it: All the world is about how many things the world can be and is. It is filled with all of these scenes of different families that converge at the end when a storm rolls in and they all go to the same beachside restaurant for a warm meal. The families show diversity in ethnicity and structure which is refreshing.

CORDUROY
Written by Don Freeman

Why we like it: This book teaches the lesson that just because something is broken or missing, does not mean you are broken or unwanted. It also shows a child purchasing something with their own money.

I'VE LOVED YOU SINCE FOREVER
Written by Hoda Kotb

Why we like it: This book talks about how a parent and a child are meant to be and uses the symbol of two stars to show this relationship throughout the book. It has beautiful and colorful imagery. It would be especially a good book for a family with adopted children; Hoda dedicated this book to her adopted daughter.

SNAIL AND THE WHALE
Written by Julia Donaldson 

Why we like it: This book teaches that regardless of how “weak” or “strong” we think we are; you can make big things happen. A modern twist on the old tiger and mouse storyline.

THELMA THE UNICORN
Written by Aaron Blabey

Why we like it: The entire book rhymes and Shannon likes to turn it into a little bit of a rap. This book teaches how it’s best to just be yourself.
