Spring picture books are some of my favorite books to read aloud! I love all the bright and cheerful spring colors.

In addition to the cheerful artwork, I love all the references to animals, gardening, and flowers. There’s just so much to love about spring picture books!

Here’s a list of our favorites. Some of these are for very young children, and some of them are suitable for older elementary kids.

Even as an adult, I still enjoy reading these! 🙂

The Cloud Book, by Tomie de Paola

It Looked Like Spilt Milk, by Charles G. Shaw

In addition to the picture books mentioned above, spring is also the perfect time to read the Beatrix Potter Books (we have this collection that includes the complete and unabridged stories all in one volume).

    Pinning and sharing this post, Joy! It’s so nice to discover new picture books for the little ones in our lives. I particularly loved Make Way For Ducklings, but I had forgotten about Angus and the Ducks! There’s lots of new to me books in this list too. Thank you for sharing, and for being apart of the Hearth and Soul Link party.

      Aren’t picture books just the greatest? I think even when all of my kids outgrow them, I’ll still be enjoying them (while I wait for grandchildren to share them with!). 🙂
