At that age, recs for a girl aren't that different from a boy desu - you've got your basic fairy tales (I like Oscar Wilde's, but any collection will work), Roald Dahl, Doctor Dolittle, Charlotte's Web, The Phantom Tollbooth, maybe Coraline if she likes spoopy stuff. Also the Frog and Toad series by Lobel is seriously underrated.

Reading Oscar Wilde stories to my kids makes me tear up a little bit.

Reading religious themes to my daughter is making her something of a zealot however.

IT by Stephen King has a clown in it, children love clowns!

Semi related question, what books should I read to my son to make him a patrician?

I'm going to expect the world of him so I expect him to be able to refute Kant by 3rd grade. I know I'll probably start with Hesiod and stories of the old testament, then move into the Odyssey, Illiad, the histories of Herodotus and Thucydides and then start in on Plato/Aristotle. Presocratics take too much cognition to get anything useful out of the actual texts without already being well educated so I'll skip them regardless of their value.

But where to go AFTER the Greeks?

The wind in the willows is pretty good,but it's more boyish when it comes to it's subject matter.

I used to know a guy like this, he kept on pushing 'the classics' on his young sons. He was a massive pleb himself obsessed with status.

They hated him and they hated the classics, and both haven't touched a book since they moved out.

the bible

>>8683963
Might be a little old for it but everything by Dr. Seuss is great.

A modern 4 year old might really get a kick out of the Grimm fairy tales.

You're supposed to teach them to care and limit how much TV they watch. Parenting 101.

>>8684788
There's just as much garbage in books as there is TV. When will this meme end?

>>8684788
eh, my dad did that and now he won't shut up about how I should get off the internet and watch more tv "like normal people"

Meg and Mog
Mr Men books.
Richard Scarry (various).

The Book With No Pictures is kind of the kidcore memebook equivalent of Stoner at the moment and good fun also.

All fun to read with kids which is what you want to aim for.
