I'm combining this with the C.S. Lewis challenge.

I not all the way through yet since there are multiple stories, but these are some of the best children's nature based stories I've ever read.
I read them when I was little, couldn't find them when my boys were little.

I cheated a little on this one and am counting the YA book I just finished as a children's book as it really is the closest I get to reading books for kids.

Infitie by Jodi Meadows

It's the last in a series that was just meh overall. Glad I finished it, I guess, and it was a quick read that was at least entertaining while I was reading it. And the cover is pretty. :D

I like the cover, too.

Sometimes I read books that I think would fit in both the YA and Children's books categories.

"C" is for children so I went all out headed straight for a true children's classic...Beatrix Potter.

and then for good measure I threw in something new a really cute story called 'Lexi Fairheart and the Forbidden Door'.

Peter Rabbit's always a winner!

Lexi Fairheart looks cute. I'll have to check that out.

It's actually a charming little story about a little girl who doesn't listen to her grandpa when he tells her not to do something. Excellent for young children. I believe there's a series of books about this young lady.
