Purple, green and yellow
by Robert N. Munsch
Picture book · ages 3–7 · 380L · 1992
Pure chaos and slapstick that kids find hilarious and parents find themselves rereading; the marker-on-everything premise never gets old.
Olivia
by Ian Falconer
Picture book · ages 3–7 · 300L · 2001
A character study disguised as a picture book: Olivia's theatrical self-absorption is unapologetic, hilarious, and oddly affirming for kids who aren't the quiet type.
Ghee Happy Gods
by Sanjay Patel
Picture book · ages 4–8 · 350L · 2023
A charming and visually rich introduction to Hindu mythology that treats the gods as relatable, bumbling characters rather than distant icons.
