Great book Will! Glad she’s enjoying it.
Here’s a recommendation from Elias: the Moomintroll series by Tove Jansson with his favorite being “The Finn Family Moomintroll.” Amazon’s got more info but that’d get his vote. It’s fun, silly fantasy.
A recommendation from Elias is something I cannot pass up.
Let me know if you have anymore. She also likes animals and fairies. I guess that goes without saying from a five year old.
Great choice, Will! It makes me cry to think that P is getting to enjoy the beautiful creativity of “The Hobbit”. Her life will never be the same after she finally gets through the entire LOTR trilogy! Love you all !!!!!!
My dad started reading to me at about the same age. Of course we started with the Chronicles of Narnia, but my very favorites were the Chronicles of Prydain:

We have read the Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe like 20 times. She loves it. I haven’t read any of the others because I was told they had a lot more violence in them. I probably should check them out for myself.
The At Home store sells the Mommintroll series. I have been meaning to pick them up.
