- "Kipper" books by Mick Inkpen.
- "Maisy" books by Lucy Cousins.
- Kids seem to like the Eric Carle books, even though I personally find the drawings rather creepy.
Eric carle, mr croc, maisy, silly rhyme books by dr seuss (e.g. the things you can think), spot (by eric hill)
never read kipper but have the cartoon where kipper is voiced by martin clunes, my son absolutely loves them!

Thankyou all !!! The reason I am asking is my daughter is turning 2 and I wanted to give books to her guests instead of party bags. All suggestions gratefully accepted!
anything by Canadian professional storyteller "Robert Munsch".
kids especially like "Angela's Airplane"
"Mortimer"
"Stephanie's Ponytail"
"I Have to Go"

"I'll Love you Forever" always brings a tear to my eye.
