The Best Picture Books of 2025 (So Far)
Fun facts: You’re never too old to read a kids’ book, and your kid is never too old to have a book read to them (even if they think they are). With these facts established, let’s just say it – this has been a tremendous year for picture books. And the year isn’t over yet. Some characters returned for new installments, new and adorable characters introduced themselves, and through it all, there’s been so much joy jumping off the picture bookshelf that we’re doing a little dance over here. We’d love it if you joined us after perusing this collection.
