Why this blog?

What do you mean books aren't for eating??
My 16-month old son Maximilian and I have really started to get in to books in the last couple of months. We have been reading books together since he was only a few months old, but the joy is really starting now that he can choose his favourites, remember what is going to happen next and even read the story to me, in some cases.

Books for Zero and Up is a place where I can record and share my memories of reading together and sharing stories with my sons (I now have a week-old baby boy Walther in addition to Maximilian). Reading at the end of the day has become a special routine in our house and it is also an activity for Maximilian and I to enjoy while I breastfeed the new baby.

This blog is also a place where I can keep track of the awesome books that I find for babies and children along this reading journey with my sons - as a librarian, I'm always looking for inspiring reads to share with littlies at storytime and rhyme time sessions!

I also hope that Books for Zero and Up will be useful for you, dear reader. Whether a parent, grandparent, teacher, librarian, or lover of children's books, I hope that the content gathered here will provide you with inspiration and ideas for new and exciting books to share and enjoy with the children in your life!
