Examiner.com listed The 25 Best Picture Books ever written.“Best” according to them means we want to read the book over and over again, it stays in our hearts and minds, the words and pictures work together, and it uses language well.
They show the list countdown-style from number 25 through 1. I’ll cut to the chase… the top five Best Picture Books ever written are…
The Little Engine That Could by Watty Piper
Cat in the Hat by Dr. Seuss
The Story of Ferdinand by Munro Leaf
Sneetches and Other Stories by Dr. Seuss
Madeline by Ludwig Bemelmans
Great books indeed! I love every one of them still! Thank goodness, we’re never too old for picture books.
I think it’s interesting that all of these books are at least 45 years old. That says something for their timelessness.
Of course, there are great picture books being written today too. You can see a few of my faves here.
