box sets of books for kids

Nothing makes a better gift for children than box sets of books. They are my very favorite thing to wrap up and deliver to babies, toddlers, preschoolers, and beginning readers. So let’s take a look at some of my go-to books for kids.

Peek-a Who? Box Set by Nina Laden brings back such fun memories for me.  My youngest loved the little mirror at the back of each book.

Buzz, Splash, Zoom, Roar!: 4-Book Karen Katz Lift-The-Flap… by Karen Katz delights little ones because they get to lift-the-flaps and discover little surprises.

Boynton’s Greatest Hits the Big Blue Box: Moo, Baa, La La… by Sandra Boynton contains some of the best of the best Boynton books.  Every little one needs a few Boynton books in their life.  Full of rhythm, song, and lovable creatures.

Nature Friends Lift-a-Flap Boxed Set 4-Pack: Little Red Barn, Little Blue Boat, Little Green Frog, and Little Yellow Bee (Chunky Lift a Flap) by Ginger Swift contain some nice and sturdy flaps to lift.  Plus, they are small enough to pop into the diaper bag.

Otis and the Animals Board Book Boxed Set by Loren Long are beautiful.  You’ll be surprised how easily you can fall in love with a tractor.

Jon Klassen’s Hat Box by Jon Klassen makes a very elegant gift.  The books come in a beautiful hard case that opens from the top.

Box Sets of Books for Beginning Readers and Indpendent Readers

Elephant & Piggie: The Complete Collection by Mo Willems is a must for new readers.  Super funny and perfect for building reading fluency.

Dog Man: The Supa Epic Collection by Dav Pilkey is hands-down my oldest son’s favorite graphic novel series ever.  I think he’s read each one at least 20 times.

Hilo: Out-Of-This-World Boxed Set by Judd Winick is another graphic novel series that is a hit with boys and girls.

Zapato Power Boxed Set #1-3 by Jacqueline Jules is an early chapter book series that my youngest has enjoyed reading and listening to as audiobook.
