That's the secret to writing children's books. You have to write something an adult can read 100 times without going insane. One I really liked was The Bravest Ever Bear. I forget who it's by, but it is pretty good by the "adult reading 100 times" test. It may be for kids a bit older than 4, but not a lot.
