Interactive Books

There are lots of different interactive books that 3 year old girls will love.

My Fairy Princess Palace features pop up palace with a real little staircase, wardrobes to hang clothes on and a pop up loo which young girls will love playing with. 
Young children love lift the flap books and there are a great range of books for this age group which tells a fairy tale such as The Three Little Pigs featured below in a lift the flap style. 
You Choose is a great book to encourage discussion. On each page there's a question such as what would you eat, where would you live or where would you sleep. The book offers numerous different and sometimes unusual options. 3 year olds love this book and making decisions as to what they would choose. 
Children of this age also love sound books, where they can press buttons to make sounds.

Princess Books

Many girls this age like books about princesses and fairies. Check out some good options of princess books below. 
The Princess and the Wizard is a Julia Donaldson book. Her books are full of rhyme and rythm and have excellent illustrations. 
3 year old girls love stickers so if they love princesses too they will enjoy the princess activity book with colouring, stickers and puzzles. Not a traditional reading book but still a great buy. 
Little Princess books are not traditional princess books but they are very funny and 3 year olds will love them all the same. The Little Princess series has now been made into a television series which can be seen on Milkshake on Channel 5. 

Peppa Pig

Peppa Pig is a favourite with 3 year olds and you can't go very wrong with a Peppa Pig book for a 3 year old fan. Check out the sound books and magnet book featured below.

Classic Books

Here are some classic books which have stood the test of time and are good choices for preschoolers
We're going on a bear hunt may be one adults remember from their childhood. There is lots of repetition so it won't be long until 3 year olds are joining in and telling the story too. Great fun to read with children joining in. 
Little Red Riding Hood is a classic fairy tale that we all know. The book featured below is a lift the flap version. 
The Hungry Caterpillar is a very simple book with simple language but one that has enchanted preschoolers generation after generation. 

Modern Picture Books

Little children love Julia Donaldson's rhyming style of writing featured in The Gruffalo. This is a huge favourite of children today, with the book being made into an animation too. 
Giraffe's Can't Dance is tells the story of Gerald the Giraffe who the other animals laugh at because he can't dance. However, he learns that he can dance really well if he just changes the tune he dances too. A lovely book which has the morale that we can all be brilliant in our own way even if we are different to others. 
Owl babies is another favourite book. It tells the tale of three baby owls who wake up to find their mother has gone. They look out for her, but where has she gone and will she come back. A great book to explain to little ones that mummy always comes back to them.
