I am sure at least people who read this will agree with me
that reading is very fundamental to the over all development of an individual.
More so, for kids.
Their tender age looks for answers to question, probably not even answerable by great scientists. Such is the mind of a child!

There is no pretence. There is no sense of achievement, but
just a pure curiosity. I believe that if this curiosity can be handled with
reading, the child will grow to be self sufficient and remarkable.
I am just listing down some stories that I read as a child,
and some that I read after I was no more a child! All of these books have
inspired me nonetheless, and have added value to my living.
If you are looking to buy these books, they could be easily
procured from a nice book store or even online.
I am going to list down books in Ascending Order of Age.
Starting with Age 2 when the child glances its first words.
All readers are welcome to add to this list. Just put it in
the comments box and it shall be posted. If possible a short review will help!
Age 2:
1. Wee Willie Winkie | Author: William Miller
This book is a darling of most toddlers. Be sure to buy the
book with graphics illustration by Annie Kubler. The illustrations will capture
the little hearts and the rhyme will get them to dance!
2. Hello Baby : Author: Mem Fox
This book is enjoyed by the babies and their parents alike!

3. The Cat in the Hat | Dr. Seuss
Two children are moping indoors on a rainy day when in strolls the Cat in the Hat. Making one of the most unforgettable entrances in the history of children's literature, the lanky feline, stylishly dressed in a candy-striped stovepipe hat and oversized bow tie, creates a whirlwind of misbehavior that the kids are at first powerless to halt.
4. The Very Hungry Caterpillar | Eric Carle
The book starts with an egg on a leaf, in the light of the moon.
The sun comes up and a tiny caterpillar emerges and looks for food.
On consecutive days, the caterpillar eats through a single red apple,
two (green) pears, three (blue) plums, four strawberries, and five oranges,
which takes us from Monday to Friday.
Saturday: the caterpillar eats its way through many different foods:
chocolate cake, ice-cream, a pickle, Swiss cheese, salami, a lollipop, cherry
pie, a sausage, a cupcake, and a slice of watermelon. The caterpillar gets a
stomach ache as a result of eating all this food.
Sunday: the caterpillar eats through a single leaf, which makes the
caterpillar feel better.
The now big caterpillar forms a cocoon (since the titular character is
not a moth larva, this is poetic license).
On the final pages the caterpillar is now a 'beautiful' butterfly.
