This sweet and soft book by HABA has enough interesting features to keep baby busy like doors that open and shut, mirrors that shine, and soft ladybugs and frogs that slide and jump.  My son loved his when he was younger.

We shared Sam Who Never Forgets earlier this year on the blog, and it is just one of those books that holds up so well over time.  My son loved this book as a baby and continues to love it as a toddler.  We have read it at least once a week since we purchased it, oh, I don't know, five years ago!

Such a cute board book series! Each Hello World book features a different lesson and a different city.  I want to get this San Francisco edition and the one with Paris and shapes.

This take on the alphabet book is just so simple and yet so artful!  I love every picture.  They bring a touch of Pacific Northwest beauty to story time. 

B is for Bear: A Natural Alphabet

And if all else fails, go with a classic like this box set of Margaret Wise Brown favorites.
