Every Book My 19 Month Old Son Owns and Do I Reccomend Them or Not
December 14, 2023
All of these can be found on amazon with the exception of the Lovevery books and the Poppy books (you would have to buy the playkits or buy the books second hand); as well as the Little Feminist boos (found on the Little Feminist website), M is for Minnie, The Tales of Winnie the Pooh, and Bedtime Favorites (I do not know where to get this, but I assume some disney shop), and the See, Touch, Feel ABC book (I do not know where to get this).
I forgot to show The Night Before Christmas in my video if you watched that. I love it, Aryi doesn’t care too much for it.
10/10 would recommend
1-26. Lovevery Books – With the exception of the first 2 black and white books, all of these were a hit from the moment we got them until current day and I know for a very long time to come. The black and white books were a huge hit in the first few months, but as with all of the other black and white baby toys, Aryi did grow out of those after a few (maybe 5) months.
High Contrast, Baby!

27. Pop-up Peekaboo! Baby Dinosaur by DK – I love this pop up dinosaur book. Aryi loved it to death, literally. He ripped heads and limbs off of all the dinos. In this cute book, the baby T.Rex finds his mama. The one thing is that the T.Rex at the end is kind of scary and I would not recommend it to babies younger than 1.
28-31. Little Feminists Books by Archaa Shrivastav and Brook Sitgraves Turner – These books bring up topics like diversity of race, ability, and family as well as the super important topic of consent in an age appropriate way with beautifully diverse people shown in the photos. I want the books Aryi reads to represent the real world.

7-20. Hello, World! Board Book Set by Jill McDonald – I love these and think they are beautiful. I thought they would be a huge hit. Aryi doesn’t really like them. I wonder if they might be a little overstimulating for him, they are a bit busy. But, also Aryi does like books with real pictures more for the most part.

I will not be including Aryi’s Nepali Books (31 books) in this post because I feel like this is more Niche. You can check those out by going over to my Youtube video below. They are at the end of the video.
This is a total of 207 books in case you were counting. We read a lot. We read 3 books at nap time and 3 books at bedtime. Aryi also brings me books to read throughout the day.
