As a haggard, weathered storytime librarian of the babies ages 0-14 months, group read-alouds need to be simple (in text and illustration) or a way to connect and celebrate new parenthood. These two types of books rarely cross paths, so both types often alternate at my baby storytime.
[Also to note: I read-aloud one book per 30 minute storytime and may skip pages/text in longer books.]
While oldies can certainly be goodies, the following books are NEWLY PUBLISHED additions to children’s literature that can serve to spruce up your storytime stockpile.
Audience: Tiny, precious babies ages 0-14 months
