    I had seen a video recently of a man talking about how his father (who passed away during his adolescent years) always had a box of books for him on his birthday with whatever number of books for the age he was turning that year. The first year was The Pokey Little Puppy, the second year was The Little Engine that Could and The Little Red Hen. The books were all tailored to the age he was. I thought this was such a wonderful idea, but he doesn't give the full list. (His dad worked for a university and asked the head of children's literature for recommendations and got books for 18 years worth of birthdays.)

    My son is about to turn 1 and I think I'm going to do this. It made me curious about what people's favorites were by age or what books their children loved at different ages.
