Help, please! My sister-in-law is having a baby shower with a forest animal theme. My job is to find board books and picture books to decorate the tables (which she'll take home afterward). Does anyone have any recommendations for forest animal picture or board books? Thanks!

BucklingBookshelves Hmmmm I‘ll need to think a bit! But we LOVE those lift a flap ones. They are so sturdy and colorful. Great for the littlest kiddos. 5y
BucklingBookshelves Ooh this one! The Gruffalo is not real, obviously, but the other animals in the story are. It takes place in a forest.

BucklingBookshelves Alllll the Bear books by Jane Chapman — there are at least 8 of them and they come as board books or picture books.

BucklingBookshelves Some critters are fictional, some are real. I LOVE the artwork. And there is a counting version too. The Adventures books is an ABC book

BucklingBookshelves Alright, I think that‘s it! 📚😆📚 5y
emtobiasz I like this board book, although it‘s a little less Forest and more backyard birds

Daisey I‘m not sure if any of these will quite fit your theme, although there are animal ones, but these are my go to baby shower book gifts! They feel more like paper instead of a board book but are tough, not easily torn or chewed, and can supposedly even be washed. https://www.workman.com/brands/indestructibles 5y
