A Little Paper Caper by Oliver JeffersA Little Paper Caper by Oliver Jeffers is a board book aimed at under threes although I think a lot of explaining would be needed for this age group. A board illustrated by the author tells the story of disappearing trees in the forest.  

None of the animals could work out what is happening until Bear confesses all...

It's a strange collection of animals in this forest and the language is often too complicated and the type size vert small but if you don't mind those reservations, this is a way to talk about destroying habitats and wasting paper!

Bing Something for Mummy by Ted DewanSomething for Mummy – It's a Bing thing by Ted Dewan

We love Bing and this is a perfect board picture book for small children. A gentle story based on a simple concept – another be nice to mummy day. But things go wrong and solutions found. And mummy will be happy as it's all done with love. And love is a Bing thing.

Great illustrations and good sized type face.

Bing Numbers!Bing Numbers!

This is a wipe clean activity book for children who are getting to grips with pencil control.

Numbers one to ten are presented as dot-to-dots for little ones to follow and then wipe clean to practice again. Each number has its own page with a colourful Bing illustration with a number question for example "Can you you circle four paint brushes?"

There's a double page spread of Nature exploring and then you can keep on with the numbers counting up to 20.
