Top Board Books

I aspire to write a children's picture book.  I keep thinking about my favorite books and why they are my favorites.  Yesterday I pulled out 30 children's books.  My criteria was absolute favorites, if I had to give away all the others, which ones would I never tire from?  Here is the thirteen which were board books, great for babies, children and adults.
                                                  The Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle

                                                    Good Dog Carl by Alexandre Day

                                                       Tickle, Tickle by Helen Oxenbury

                                                    Big Red Barn by Margaret Wise Brown

                                                      Little Oink by Amy Krouse Rosenthal

                                   Five Little Monkeys with Nothing to Do by Eileen Christelow

                                          Dog Food by Saxon Freymann and Joost Elffers

                                                   Belly Button Book by Sandra Boyton

                                                On the Night You Were Born by Nancy Tillman
                                       Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? by Eric Carle
The Little Mouse, The Red Ripe Strawberry, and the Big Hungry Bear by Don & Audrey Wood

                                                     Goodnight Moon by Margaret Wise Brown

                Each was chosen for the artwork, the story, the rhythm, and the smile they give me.
