3 YEARS AND UP
A selection of some of the picture books in German you can expect to receive for your 3 year old.
Picture books with slightly longer stories work now, funny books as well. Stories on every day life are still great, but more fantastical topics can be more interesting to the 3 year old. Books on emotions are good at any age, to help them name them. And the first books that answer the ongoing questions about life. You might start to hear Why? very often.
