Now that he's one and a half he is learning all the sounds that I make as my form of "expression" during the reading. It's quite funny to hear him make the sounds before me when we read the same book for the 234th time in his life :-) Here from Carnival of Family Life We have read to my son since he was born.

My daughter has learn to love books at an early age. I used to read to her before she started crawling, that way I'd have a captive audience! Here via Carnival of Family Life. Great tips!

There's an undeniable element of genetic irony here. Izzy's loves a book called "Violet's House" to the point where Jennifer has it effectively memorized. I didn't believe her at first when she said so, but just last night she recited it almost word-for-word without even looking at the pages. Of course, I'm torn about getting him more books. On the one hand, it'll add some variety, which is good for him and might not be so boring for us. On the other hand, he'll probably insist on hearing all of them every day no matter how many he has. Ah, the joys of parenthood... :| Yeah, I seem to recall the three little kittens losing their mittens, although I don’t remember asking you to read it over and over again.

It's refreshing, Sweetie, to not only see that you're reading to my darling Grandson but that you're reading over and over and over to him his favorite book(s)! I only wish I had a nickle for every time you demanded I read you "The Three Little Kittens"...I believe I still have it [mostly] memorized...after how many years? Yes, THAT was your favorite book for a very long time! Remind me to get it out of the attic and give it to Izzy so you, too, can memorize it! ;-) Love ya, mean it!!!!!
