I have the "original" books in the first few weeks, but after that, I just say "another" If your child loves a particular character and you want to read the rest of the series, I have them listed below. All titles were done by the original authors, not licensed later. LITTLE BEAR FRANCES BABAR BILLY AND BLAZE Little Bear Bedtime for Frances The Story of Babar Billy and Blaze Father Bear Comes Home A Baby Sister for Frances The Travels of Babar, or Babar's Travels Blaze and the Forest Fire Little Bear's Friend Bread and Jam for Frances Babar the King Blaze Finds the Trail Little Bear's Visit A Birthday for Frances A.B.C. of Babar Blaze and Thunderbolt A Kiss for Little Bear Best Friends for Frances Babar and His Children, or Babar at Home Blaze and the Mountain Lion

A Bargain for Frances *Babar and Zephir is out of print Blaze and the Lost Quarry Blaze and the Gray Spotted Pony Blaze Shows the Way Blaze Finds Forgotten Roads

*Gypsies and the Indian Cave are both OP. Notes for Picture Book Collection Track: Several Collections to purchase, plus Bear of Hemlock Mountain You may, of course, not purchase these and just get them from your library, but these all come in convenient collections bolded below. Any POTTER Collection Make Way for McCloskey Mike Mulligan and More Complete Adventures of Curious George Peter Rabbit Make Way for the Ducklings Mike Mulligan and His Steam Shovel Curious George Benjamin Bunny Blueberries for Sal The Little House Curious George Takes a Job Mrs. Tiggy-Winkie Lentil Maybelle, The Cable Car Curious George Rides a Bike Squirrel Nutkin A Time of Wonder Katy and the Big Snow Curious George Gets a Medal

Samuel Whiskers One Morning in Maine *Calico and Choo-Choo not in collection Curious George Flies a Kite Gloucester Burt Dow, Deep Water Man Curious George Learns the Alphabet Jeremy Fischer Curious George Goes to the Hospital Jemima Puddle Duck

Notes for Bennet/Perrault: Buy BOV and any "complete" Perrault collection, he only did about 10 tales & Laura's is WAY OP I eliminated the Book of Virtues (BOV) stories that were also doubled in the Grimm column. Perrault's tales start with Sleeping Beauty.

Notes for GRIMM: Buy Laura's (ISBN 0394709306) or any collection of 30 or more. Laura's Grimm book has 200 tales. I picked the most popular 32 that I found across multiple collections. Those with asterisks are also assigned in the Book of Virtues, and one is recommended as a picture book. What's not on my list: Little Fir Tree: because I don't know where Christmas falls in your weeks A Time to Keep: because I don't know where your January is. Babar and Father Christmas: same reason as above Chimney Corner Stories: because TAN hasn't brought it back and the Neumann copies are $$$ Watty Piper collection: way out of print and $$$ However, I did find copies of the last two in the UK, so when they get here, I can add another column
