My kids adored his books. So did my first couple of grandkids. I lost track of the books when I left my late ex. I assume they went to one of my kids.

Also anything by Eric Carle or Gyo Fujikawa, although most of Fujikawa's books are not board books. There was at least one, though. Adorable pics that my daughter loved.
