Hello, we are parents with a 5-month-old baby. We are looking for books to read to her.
Unfortunately we cannot go to the public library anymore, it would have been easy to go through books and see something we like.
So we are wondering: do you have any suggestions on books we could borrow from the library that would be nice for our baby? Ideally a book that she can touch and play a bit with, and maybe not too many words on each page as to keep it interactive.
Also, we are very beginners in Finnish, so a book in Finnish would be fine as long as long as it's only a few words per page and not the full Kalevala.

You can find books for babies in Helmet libraries by the term "paksulehtiset kirjat" (books with thick pages), and then choose books in English language, if you like. You can find them here:

Also a key word "toddlers" could be useful:
