Oh, I <3 looking for books for my kids!! They are 14, 13, 12, 11, and 5. Our son is the youngest, and he loves all the books that his older sisters loved when they were younger. :D
Oh my gosh...Get those kids some books!
I would love this book for our oldest daughter if I win, please.
/u/DrUsual...can you think of any?
Thank you for the contest!
Try /r/parenting/ and /r/raisingkids/ (slightly less toxic)
Many kids don't begin to read until they enter kindergarten (age 5). If this 4-year-old is being taught by his parents to read, or gets such instruction (say, in a Montessori preschool) find out if he's in the early stages, or he's going full bore reading regular picture books and 'early reader' books on his own. Such a child typically enters kindergarten reading at a first or second grade level.
Unless he's a strong reader, the safe and good bet is to buy books with the intent that his parents will read the books to him. So even a chapter book could be appropriate if the subject matter interests him to be read a chapter or two each night at bedtime.
There are loosely ordered by my recommendation level:
How do I make the world a better place? I listen, I care, I do what I can when I can, and I remember that I can do more and can always try.
The people who make my world better are my wife and my child. They are the only two people I give that power to.
My dream? That is someday get up enough courage to create (in photography or in writing) the thing that I am capable of making but too afraid to do.
You're pretty sexy yourself.
The thing I'd like (It'll be something I'll read to my daughter):

You've gotten some good suggestions for fiction and biographies, but I'd actually recommend getting her a book aimed at kids about how to write. Try Spilling Ink by Anne Mazer and Ellen Potter, or one of Gail Carson Levine's books: Writing Magic or Writer to Writer.
Kids' writing books are great because they're empowering - they'll have specific writing advice, encouraging words, and activities to help kick-start her writing. I remember receiving a similar writing guide when I was that age, and it made me feel like a real professional.
(Also, I've read the Stephen King and Ursula Le Guin writing guides that other users suggested, and I wouldn't recommend those for a child at all - the advice is definitely more advanced, including complex grammar concepts, and Stephen King is brutally honest about his view that most writers will never make it. Much too discouraging for a kid.)
I'd like to nominate myself. I'm a single mother, and this last year has been very hard for me. I finally went onto antidepressants last November, which has made a slow improvement. I've had relationship difficulties (international long distance isn't easy), and my daughter has had surgery (tonsils and adenoids out) which has been followed by ongoing and severe reflux issues. It's been a rough year, and I know that the only way I get anything for Mother's Day is if I give my daughter some money to buy something at the Mother's Day stall at school. It would be nice to have another gift. My daughter tells me I'm the best mum in the universe and that she loves me all the time, which I love. Sometimes it's nice to get a little reward, though.
I would love this book, but with shipping it will be over $15. If that's not feasible, then these ebooks (1, 2, 3, and 4) would be great.
Goodnight Gorilla was the first to elicit laughter, mostly for the confused/surprised sound I make when the lights go off, the animals say goodnight and the wife's eyeballs open wide in the darkness.
Any of the monkeys-jumping-on-the-bed books are fun when your child is sitting on your legs and you bounce them around and onto the floor. It should be the first book read at bedtime because it's so lively.
Any book is a bedtime book, so I read OP's question as, "What is your favorite book?"
For me, it's Too Many Frogs because I'm best at doing the voices for the two characters in the story, along with a raucous knock-knockety-knocking at the door.
For my wife, it's Trashy Town because she has worked the reoccurring refrain into a sort of song with participation from the kids when they're asked if the trash truck is full yet. "NO!" Mr. Gilly drives on...
Oh the places you'll go. My mom gave it to me as part of my graduation gift years ago. It sits proudly beside "Principles of Neural Science" and "Neuroanatomy". I encourage everyone to read it :)
The book that I have and I adore Prudent Advice. <Link if anyone is interested. It is beautifully written and varies between really serious advice and more silly things. I don't have a daughter, but I hope I will one day and until then use it to remind myself sometimes.
Sonya, Your Momma wouldn't tell you this but if a book has been banned, you should probably read it.
I also really like: You don't have to pretend to know something if you don't.
And: Get messy!
Every child needs this book.
Green eggs and ham. Your daughter might enjoy this.
book for my daughter because we both love to watch the show together.
It's kind of simplistic, but I'm a huge fan of Writing Magic: Creating Stories that Fly by Gail Carson Levine.
No, not Oh, the Places You'll Go!; it's such well-written book, full of meaning an elegance with a positive message! Why would anyone flush a book that has so clearly dwarfed all others in poetry and value? Why would anyone attack such a sacred work of encouragement and truth? I mean, sure some of it sounds silly and mythical, but the meaning rings true even today! Surely, they can't be so jealous that their sacred texts hold so little poetic worth or modern relevance that they would flush the most holy of holy texts!
...Oh wait, I forgot; I have a level of maturity that allows me to recognize that it's just a book and not be bothered by what they do with their copy, especially in the modern day as destroying a book is not a successful method of removing the content from the public sphere thanks to publishers and the internet.
If it was my copy they
burnedflushed, I'll demand they pay me the price of a new one and a little extra, for destruction of others property shouldn't be encouraged; perhaps $20 or so.I wonder if it's on Kindle...
Well, I'm not sure if this one qualifies.
So if it doesn't, I'll do this one
Either one, both are great and I plan to use for baby sitting gigs.
I'm sure this has been said before, but "Oh, the places you'll go" by Dr. Suess is such an inspiring book. I think it's not just healthy for my children, it also reminds me not to get stuck in "the waiting place".

Edit: Also "oh baby, go baby" for the real little ones:

Well it's better than steam cattle
I have the book from back when he was on the Mariners (haha at the prices). I remember getting it signed by him at a bookstore in Pioneer Square. I only remember I have because of a line it it: "I'm not playing for the money". Haha, ok, A-Roid.

Oh the places you'll go!
It does have some wonderful illustrations by /u/helloluis and Timi Ajiboye, but no characters with a cowboy hat.
If you want a character with a cowboy hat, there's this book by the Bitcoin Rabbi.
Just gonna leave [this] (http://www.amazon.com/Oh-Places-Youll-Dr-Seuss/dp/0679805273) here
Oh and this too. [link] (http://pastebin.com/mJZC9H8p)
In terms of the issue of retaliation it depends on the gangs prevalence around the nation, and the places you'll go (Oh! The places you'll go!). Hard to determine the accuracy of that given the information.
Nothing sweeter I can think of than Dr Seuss's Oh the Places You'll Go! https://www.amazon.com/Oh-Places-Youll-Go/dp/0679805273/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1501704461&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=oh+the+places+you%27ll+go
The last book he wrote before he died, it's full of important life lessons, captured in his inimitable rhyme and rhythm.
"You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself any direction you choose."
