What books are appropriate to read at bedtime to a three-year-old? I'd like something a little longer than, like, Goodnight Moon, that maybe we could start one night and finish the next or the next.


I read one of her "longer" books to her last month at her home, and she was very interested. It made me think she could handle something longer that might take more than one reading to complete.


Any help appreciated.
i have a couple of ideas. i'm not sure if he/she is old enough for rush revere, but i've found you can read a kid anything as long as you have the right attitude. @ 3yrs she/he may enjoy the tone of your voice, or add character sounds which make 'boring' books fun. kind of like when richard burton recited the phone book on tv years ago, LOL. some of the discount stores offer tons of books to choose from for kids, maybe bring the tyke to the store to pick 1 out? sounds like a great chance to discover reading~!!
