good books for growing niblings? (hexbear.net)

my niblings are 5 and 6 respectively. they like to read and be read to and I would like to get some books to help foster their enjoyment of reading as they grow up - so ideally stuff that's not too challenging but still good for fostering young imaginations. obviously sneaky subversive themes are welcome - the sneakier the better, I kinda suspect their dad leans chud.

I haven't revisited them since I was a kid so no idea if there's any... themes but I read a lot of the Redwall series by Brian Jacques as a little one.

I'm just realizing I read more then than I do now doggirl-cry
