Stuck for a birthday or Christmas pressie for a one-year old? North Shore Mums have come together to share their favourite books for their babies. Generally, books with flaps, things you can touch and bright illustrations are the types of books that get the big tick of approval!
We’ve included links to The Book Depository, as they have an amazing range of well-priced books, free delivery to Australia, and it always arrives really quickly (except around Christmas, so make sure you order early!).
