31 Days, 31 Lists: 2019 Great Board Books

SLJ: 12.01.2019 by Elizabeth Bird

Ahhhhhh. I actually feel a deep seated sense of relief when I begin publishing these lists. All throughout 2019 I was a good girl and wrote down the descriptions for each book appearing on these lists long ahead of time so that I wouldn’t kill myself this month. And what better way to kick off 31 days of my favorite children’s books of the year than with the most successful (I’d argue) format?

As with last year I will note that though it looks like I’ve included every single last board book in Christendom on this list, this is but a small sampling of the books that are available. They are, however, the ones that I feel went above and beyond the call of duty.

Oh. And if you’d like to see previous round-ups, here are the board book lists from 2018 and 2017, respectively.
