The Sandman Vol. 6: Fables and Reflections | Neil Gaiman

@bookriot #RiotGrams #October Challenge-#picturebookstack. Litsy's photo editor forced me to crop the photo , resulting in my favourite of the lot-Alison Bechdel's " The essential dykes to watch out for " getting croppped out of the frame !

#catchingup on #riotgrams #day25 - #picturebookstack

My friends with a 1-year old daughter are better equipped with picture books than I am. Here's the one they had most readily at hand.

On one of the top shelves on our bookcase we always display seasonal childrens' books. Halloween is one of my favourites!

Koko's Kitten | Francine Patterson, Ronald H. Cohn

I am a childless adult and this is my #picturebookstack. No shame, I love this medium! Old Bear and Koko's Kitten are the only ones I've had since childhood though others are replacements of childhood favorites (as a teacher's kid you don't keep much of your stuff once you grow out of it - there's always a kid that can use it). Tagged book is the greatest of all time. I was a kid with a love for animals and a lot of emotions. #riotgrams

Tamra I love reading picture books, there is astounding talent! I do have young kids, so I have a ready made excuse, but I don‘t intend to stop. 😁 7y

everlocalwest @Tamra Picture books are the best! 💙💙 7y

Giulio Coniglio per terra e per mare | Nicoletta Costa

We are at the in-laws in Italy ??, so it's not our #PictureBookStack really, but we read them when we are here. The tagged book is a series that is published in English too: "Julio Bunny" Very nice picture books! #riotgrams

The Paper Bag Princess: Read-Aloud Edition | Robert Munsch

My daughter is 8 now and onto Harry Potter, but these are some of the picture books she‘s kept. #riotgrams day 25 #picturebookstack

DivaDiane You're starting on Harry Potter? I thought maybe we could with our 8 year old too. 7y

Abailliekaras @DivaDiane I started reading it to her when she was younger but it was a little too slow, she wasn‘t into it. Now though she absolutely loves them and has read all 7! The themes are ok I think and once the magic part starts it becomes quite pacy. She‘s watched the films too & says the last 2 are scary. 😉 7y

bedandabook I read my daughter the first two when she was eight, and then she read the third herself. I was worried the last few might be too scary for her age (she‘s now 9), but you‘ve made me think again about it. 7y

Tamra Paper Bag Princess should be required reading! 😁 7y

Tamra @DivaDiane I can‘t get mine interested in HP. 😑 7y

Abailliekaras @Tamra I‘ve tried so hard to get my daughter into the Moomins but she hasn‘t (yet) 😬 hopefully she‘ll come to it in her own time. Then my son (6) adores the Geronimo Stilton books which I don‘t get at all! Each to their own ... 😉 love Paper Bag Princess. 👌 7y

DivaDiane Those are all books I've never heard of @Abailliekaras ! We've been living in Germany and our familiarity with kids books in English is very spotty. I've been reading my own childhood faves (Narnia, The Cricket In Times Square, Charlotte's web, etc) and then we discovered Deltora! Great stuff. I'm sure he'll like HP. We watched the first movie together. 7y

Tamra @Abailliekaras we haven‘t read the Moomins. Geronimo has been just OK. They‘ve really liked the Dragon Masters series, even still at 10.
