Storytime feeling repetitive? These are the books kids will swap their favourites for
Is the child in your life hooked on one particular story? Expand their library and save your sanity as we take some of the most-loved children's books for all ages and share new titles your little ones will want to try.
It's wonderful when children fall in love with a book, and hearing or reading it again and again is great for their development. Repetition is good for learning, and creating a routine around repeat reads can really help children's sense of control and understanding of what's going to happen next, particularly at bedtime. But it's also nice to have a bit of variety – for both children and their grown-ups!
If you've read your toddler the same book ten times today, or know an older reader who'd like to find something new, here are our suggestions for what to try next based around some firm favourites.
