(The first couple of books in both those series are great for younger girls, while some of the later books are better for older girls.)<br /><br />If you want stand-alone books, Charlotte's Web by E.B. White and A Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnett were two of our favorites.<br /><br />Hope that gives you a good start!Traceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03901952910404523187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3116888517706923699.post-26362463273889222192013-01-23T22:09:24.137-05:002013-01-23T22:09:24.137-05:00Can you suggest any good read aloud chapter books ...Can you suggest any good read aloud chapter books or longer books for 4 to 5 year olds?
