These
are just plain great children's books, whether they be of a pagan
orientation, or not. In fact, most are not, but they are still great
classics of children's literature. I loved them as a child, and my
children love them now. Some are old, some are new, but you and your
children are bound to like them all.

Goodnight
Moon
Hardcover version of this classic, made to last.
A little rabbit bids goodnight to each familiar thing in his room,
in this classic story told with gently lulling words and soothing
illustrations.
Runaway
Bunny (Board Book)
The Runaway Bunny begins with a young bunny who decides to run away:
"'If you run away,' said his mother, 'I will run after you. For you
are my little bunny.'" And so begins a delightful, imaginary game
of chase. No matter how many forms the little bunny takes--a fish
in a stream, a crocus in a hidden garden, a rock on a mountain--his
steadfast, adoring, protective mother finds a way of retrieving him.
The soothing rhythm of the bunny banter--along with the surreal, dream-like
pictures--never fail to infuse young readers with a complete sense
of security and peace. For any small child who has toyed with the
idea of running away or testing the strength of Mom's love, this old
favorite will comfort and reassure.
Guess
How Much I Love You
by Sam McBratney, Anita Jeram (Illustrator)
All children want reassurance that their parents' love runs wide and
deep. In Guess How Much I Love You, a young rabbit named Little Nutbrown
Hare thinks he's found a way to measure the boundaries of love. In
a heartwarming twist on the "I-can-do-anything-you-can-do-better"
theme, Little Nutbrown Hare goes through a series of declarations
regarding the breadth of his love for Big Nutbrown Hare. But even
when his feelings stretch as long as his arms, or as high as his hops,
Little Nutbrown Hare is fondly one-upped by the elder rabbit's more
expansive love.
