10 Books Every Child Should be Read before Kindergarten

As a kindergarten teacher, I am often asked to share suggestions for books for five-year-olds.  These are great books to be reading and discussing with little ones before they enter Kindergarten.
1. Love You Forever- a very sweet story about a parent’s unconditional love
2. Goodnight Moon- a classic bedtime story that any child will enjoy
3. Brown Bear, Brown Bear What Do You See?- a fun, patterned book that toddlers love
4. The Little Engine that Could- a great story about not giving up
5. Corduroy- a sweet story about a little bear searching for a home
6. Where the Wild Things Are- a book that ignites the child’s imagination
7. Harold and the Purple Crayon- another great story using the imagination
8. Caps for Sale- a classic book that will bring a smile to your child’s face :)
9. The Very Hungry Caterpillar- another wonderful classic from Eric Carle
10. The Giving Tree- a tender story about the gift of giving
