24. Tangled, by Ben Smiley
This is the Golden Book adaptation of the movie Tangled, which is itself an adaptation of Rapunzel (though it's far less disturbing than the original fairytale). My 3-year-old niece had me read it to her twice. It was a good story the first time, repetitive the second time, and when she asked me to read it a third time, I said twice was enough and she found other books for me to read to her.

25. The Hungry Frog, by Peter Tovey
A hungry frog looks and looks for something good to eat, rejecting a bee, a moth, and a fish before gobbling up a firefly. This book has a pair of puppet eyes you can stick your fingers in so the frog can look at his potential prey.

26. Mr. Brown Can Moo! Can You?, by Dr. Seuss
Mr. Brown demonstrates all the outlandish sounds he can make, including mooing, hooing, and cock-a-doodle-doing. My niece was embarrassed when I showed her that I could make most of those sounds, too.


"Oh, you can’t help that," said the Cat: "we’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad."
"How do you know I’m mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn’t have come here.”

- Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland
