Jamberry by Bruce Degen
We've been reading this to the kid since birth, but she's really getting into it at around 20 months. Fun, lots of good detail, doesn't really get old for me. Although my theory about how the book is actually the kid's hallucination from eating poisonous berries is getting pretty elaborate.

Commander Toad and the Big Black Hole (Paperstar Book) by Jane Yolen
This is definitely a humorous easy reader, so it is a great choice for reluctant readers. This animal fantasy story is about frogs and toads in space finding a black hole that turns out to be a mouth. They become stuck on the sticky, pink tongue. Hilarious, right? Well, sometimes we have to encourage children to want to read. The humor is for some children and not others. The ship is named the Star Warts.
