5 of our favourite kids books
We love the idea of creating a reading nook and taking the time with your little ones to read stories together. That’s part of the reason we made our Serena Nursing Chair with such a comfortable and wide seating area - so it can accommodate you and your little one for story time snuggles as they grow.
To celebrate World Book Day (4th March), we wanted to share some of our favourite children’s books with you.
