I'd like some recommendations for children's books in english, for a tiny person how is three, soon to be four. He's also dutch. He's interested.

Seriously, we're not pushing him.

Anyway, anyone know any good titles?

Poems by Shel Silverstein come highly recommended.  My kids always loved Smart (though knowing american coinage helps) and Mr Moody

BeoPuppy:
Written down and appreciated!

The Seldom Killer:
I'm sure I've recommended this before but I can't help but think it's worth mentioning again.

Utopia

If you miss that bit of Game of Thrones where the life expectancy of any character simply isn't guaranteed, Utopia
If you miss that bit of Game of Thrones that has Ygritte in it, Utopia
If you enjoy a well crafted bit of conspiracy theory, Utopia
If you like slowly emerging character development without too much a distracting amount of exposition, Utopia
If you are entertained by brilliant, experimental and unfettered British Drama, Utopia

Basically watch this, it's awesome and the theme music is a little addictive too.

Two by Quint Buchholz: "Sleep Well, Little Bear," and "The Collector of Moments." The stories (especially the latter) are great, and the illustrations (again, especially the latter) are amazing. Anything by William Joyce, but especially his older stuff. Raymond Briggs ("The Man" is a personal favorite). David Wiesner's stuff is also fun -- some of it, like "Tuesday" and "Sector 7," is wordless, which lets you and your little person decide where the story goes.

Daniel Pinkwater's Tooth Gnasher Superflash, The Big Orange Splot, The Wuggie Norple Story, and pretty much anything else.  A lot of his books are a little older than the kid (mostly aimed at ~7-12 year olds), but those ones are younger.
