Since I'm a first grade teacher, I will be visiting this often!
I loved:
Pat the Bunny - there were all these things you could do, rub the soft bunny, look at yourself in a "mirror", rub daddy's scratchy "beard", smell the "flowers". It was great tactile learning!
I could fill up pages of children's books, but will follow Honey's directions!

Oh... Another thing I thought of... when I was in the end of elementary school and going into middle school I had a thing for reading stories about children dying of diseases or surviving from them... So I suggest

Oh, I loved Pat the Bunny (for my middle daughter, though!), and the Betsy-Tacy series, and Beverly Cleary. (I'm reading "Henry and Ribsy" and "Beezus and Ramona" to my youngest daughter right now, and reliving how much I loved those books.)
