0-6 months
We mainly "read" cloth books. Or while Baby Sis was lying awake she was looking at the black and white images, like in this one. I also pointed at the pictures and said what was seen (daddy, baby, heart etc.)
It's also important to mention that the Velcro on the book is TASTY. 😂
IKEA cloth books are great. Apart from looking at them I could make up a very simple story on the basis of the pics. They're also interactive (you can pull out a rabbit from a black top hat)
Drugstore (DM) cloth books that crackle and rustle:
Maisy's bedtime - We usually have a look at this booklet before bath time.
Ladybird series: Baby touch
The 2 on the top were E.'s favourite as a baby
E. as a baby, "reading" |

This is not the touchy and feely kind |
Baby Sis is examining the fluffy bunny |
6-12 months:
We on reading the books above and introduced some new ones:Noisy books are number one (not so amusing for parents though after 15-20 minutes of quacking)
Old MacDonald will be a Christmas present |
Here is a Dear zoo song:
On this link you can PEEP inside |
One of our favourites is this Animal hide-and-seek. You can see how fun it is in the video below.
And the extra surprise book with a hand puppet:
Five Silly Monkeys by Steve Haskamp
The traditional song with a little twist. Here is a review from goodreads that I could have written:
"This time five monkeys are silly and not just mischievous. They jump on the bed of course, then they eat on the bed, swing on the bed, slide on the bed, and then spin on the bed.
Great fun for little ones and they love holding the cover with the monkeys heads made out of plastic for them to feel!"

I hope you could find some ideas about what to read with your little one. Feel free to share what books you're reading with this age group.
