Top Ten Picture Books of 2023
Did you have a favorite book from last year? I read a lot, I mean a lot of books. Hundreds for sure, probably more. Of the children's books I read, these picture books stuck out most to me. The books in this list are unique and carefully crafted. Books in this list stem from some categories I love to see in kid lit, such as books that help kids adore reading, SEL, earth helper topics, and more. Narrowing down picture books to just ten was super challenging, so I included two extra to make a dozen.
