Types of Books on The Bookshelf

You are here: Home / Types of Books on The Bookshelf

Explore books by their type/format.

Special note: This section is new to the site. I will be adding book recommendations over the next few months.

Board Books

If you have a baby or toddler – Board Books are your best friend! They have thick, chunky “pages” that are easy for little hands and fingers to handle. They will also have content perfect for little brains that are exploring their world.

Picture Books

Picture books are ideal to begin reading with children about age 3 and older. They feature large, beautiful illustrations and smaller amounts of text. Choose books with fewer words for younger children, gradually increasing the number of words per page as children get older. Popular picture books are often also available in abridged board book editions for babies and toddlers.

The mission of Beehive Books and Arts is to be a resource for anyone who has kids in their life that are learning to read and to love reading. 

Our blog articles, activities, and The Bookshelf support families with children from birth to around age 12. From the earliest days of their lives to the point where they are fluent readers!
