There Is a Bird on Your Head! (An Elephant and Piggie Book) By Mo Willems

Elephant and Piggie are besties!  They have lots of different adventures together.  This is a fabulous series for new readers and also great for reading aloud to tots.  My 2 year old ran around the house for months saying "fly, fly, fly, fly..." after we read Today I Will Fly.  I chose There Is a Bird On Your Head! because I cannot read it without laughing out loud.  The illustrations work so well with the words to create a very definite feeling.  Elephant asks Piggie if he has a bird on his head and Piggie proceeds to narrate all that is happening on Elephant's head.  This includes the bird falling in love, building a nest, laying eggs, and then eggs hatching.  A book to make parent and child happy!
