This set of books is handily kept in a box (though ours has already torn--the cardboard could be sturdier). The text is easy to read with a lot of word repetition, perfect for introducing new words. Some of the topics are random, but my boy enjoys them. He's on the verge of reading but has yet to make the leap. I think these are helping.

I read these to my 6 month old. I bought them for her to use later though, and I think they will be very good first books. The stories are simple and easy to read. A few are even funny!
