ATHENEUM
The Adventures of Taxi Dog -- a charming rhyming story about an adopted dog.
Dinosaur Bob and His Adventures with the Family Lazardo - The story is pretty simple. I'm mostly in love with William Joyce's artwork. This edition includes the lyrics to The Ballad of Dinosaur Bob at the end. We sang it each time reading the book and I eventually bought a fairly rare stuffed Dinosaur Bob off eBay (set up a search notification because it doesn't come up very often). Here's some school kids singing The Ballad of Dinosaur Bob, although they murder their pronunciation of Mesozoic (mess-o-zoe-ic). When Bob 'stamps his mighty feet' in the song, you pound the floor with your hands.
Too Many Frogs -- This was a story I really got into for voicing the frustrated rabbit who likes spending his nights alone, but the overly friendly frog keeps returning each night to enjoy storytime. There's the frog's knock-knock-knocketing at Rabbit's door I always pounded out, and I really worked at sounding exasperated.
Any book by Graeme Base -- for the illustrations. Try Animalia or The Eleventh Hour.
Dog Breath by Dav Pilkey (of Captain Underpants fame). You may find similarities between this and the more popular Walter the Farting Dog, but Dog Breath is the original and better smelly dog book.
Cars and Trucks and Things that Go or any other Richard Scarry book. The bigger the format, the better. This one showcases a ton of different vehicles on each double page with a recurring theme of finding Dingo Dog, who is being chased by a police car. And there's 'Golden Bug' who is hiding somewhere on each page in a vehicle.
Dinosaur Bob??
So there are so many great books on this thread! A lot that I have, and some I will look for, but before I give my own list, I wanted to suggest that you hit up your local book sales either with your kids or without to find amazing books for cheap! I use https://www.booksalefinder.com to find booksales in my area. You can find so many children's books in great condition for super cheap. From $0.25 to at the most $2, and most sales have a Fill A Bag sale on the last day! I could spend hours looking through all the books! Plus most of the sales are supporting charity (schools, libraries, scholarships), it's really a win/win for everyone! I've been able to amass quite a collection of over 1,200 books in a short amount of time thanks to these sales (As well as thrift stores).
