We use to read to my daughter every night, and she loved anything written by Ruth Brown. It seems to me she was between 18-24 months when she first saw them.
The pictures are not always bright, but there are usually things hidden within the picture that she liked to find (rabits in a field, or a "monster" sneaking up in the background)
Her favorite was the "Tale of the Monstrous Toad", which she called the "dirty toad book". I remember when she was two she wouldn't go to bed until we read the book.

I don't remember reading quite that young, but I do remember not long after that.

Doesn't need to be an extended period of time, though. A few minutes is enough at the beginning.

anyone who thinks an infant sleeping on its stomach is dangerous is behind the times.

If there was a big ad campaign in the UK about this then no-one told my medical team.
