Here at Tiny Humans Read, we love finding new and interesting books off the beaten path. We look for fun and whimsical stories and illustrations, but we love finding books that don’t always follow a traditional cadence or have an expected ending.

In searching for the perfect books to include in every Tiny Humans Read box, we go through dozens each month!

These are some of our favorite books for kids from past Tiny Humans Read boxes.

Mary Had a Little Lab

Featured in the August Tiny Humans Read picture and sibling boxes, Mary Had a Little Lab is a charming story about a young inventor who decides she wants a pet, but one she can’t buy, so she makes one! A great story, brilliant illustrations and an empowering message.

My Magical Dragon

We love this interactive board book in which you meet a sparkly dragon who takes a prince and princess for a ride, stops for tea, and plays with his dragon friends.

Shhh! I’m sleeping

All the dogs are sleeping, until one starts snoring. Then another wants a story, and another wants a glass of water. Sound familiar? A very fun board book I’m sure many can relate to!

Happy Heart

A super cute board book ideal for baby and toddler bedtimes. We love that this one that celebrates loved ones in such a fun way with happy and colorful illustrations.

How to Bake a Book

A DELICIOUS tale about a girl who learns the recipe to make the perfect story. Super entertaining and a wonderful way to teach the elements (or ingredients) of a good story!

Miss Brooks Loves Books

A wonderful book about a librarian who is determined to inspire a love for reading in children and shows them that reading can be fun and exciting, it’s just about choosing the right books! (Librarians are the BEST!)

Haiku Night

A collection of haiku poems about different things you’d find at night, this is an adorable way to introduce tiny humans to Japanese poetry. We love the whimsical illustrations, too!
