CLOSED: Little One Books....The Right Choice! (+Giveaway)


* Click here to view the name(s) of the winner(s)*

You've been invited for a birthday party. The little girl who will be turning 4 is crazy about books. You have a 1 year old and have no clue what to buy this child. What do you do?


Does this sound familiar?
All of us on some occasion or the other have been lost when it has come to picking up the right book, cd or dvd for a baby or a child between the ages of 1 to 5.

Barney Cohen and Joan McCoy tapped into this need and formed Little One Books to help parents and 'gift givers' around the nation choose from 'time tested' media for infants and children. Media that is not just entertaining but also educational.

Little One Books is different. It's not an online store that is crammed with all the books, cds and dvds in the market for kids. No Siree! Each book, cd or dvd featured in each of the age categories have been specifically hand picked and reviewed by Barney, Joan or one of their trustworthy contributors.

Bunny girl loves being read books of every size and length, enjoys tapping her feet to music and finds joy in watching anything that is educational and fun on tv. Keeping her tastes in mind, I did explore the 4 year old category and found several books, cds and videos I know she'd love. (The reviewers/contributors did a great job in choosing right!)

We finally picked a book on one of her favorite characters- Curious George and what a treat it was to find a 'Special Collector's Edition' of The Complete Adventures of Curious George


The book is perfect for a 4 year who is intrigued with anything and everything (just like George) and the collection of 7 stories is perfect to engage the little 'listener'.
Her favorite story was how George met the Man with the Yellow Hat. I, on the other hand, loved the way the alphabet is introduced to the young child, in a manner that is both creative and fun!

Bunny girl is yet to learn to read on her own but this has not stopped her from dragging this big book off the coffee table and flipping through the pages whenever she takes a break from playing.


The Complete Adventures of Curious George is a great pick for 4 year olds and Abby Walker has captured the essence of the book aptly with her review of the same.

I know there are tons of sites out there with collections for infants and kids but I would encourage you to take a few minutes out to explore Little One Books especially if you have little ones at home (or need to get a gift for that little one you know!).
This site is a great resource especially if you want to pick up a book, cd or dvd that will be enjoyed, loved and treasured for a good long while.

  48. Interesting website. With so many good books out there it must be quite hard to narrow down appropriate books for each age. I found several books that I hadn't heard of while searching through the choices. I'm pretty sure my son would like:
    "My big boy bed" by Eve Bunting. Sounds perfect for him.
