Usborne's Baby's First Black and White Tray has stood up to all of my daughters' slobber. My twins loved it before my youngest got her mouth on it. We love the high contrast pictures. My nine month old, N, recognizes most of the pictures especially in Faces and Babies. It's very simple, so my 3 year olds can "read" it to her and enjoy it. 
Usborne's That's Not My series is adorable. Each page has a new texture for my daughter to explore. She flips through and searches with her fingers for the fabric. The simple repeated text is perfect to keep her interest. It also stands up to slobber. 
N also loves Kane Miller's Hush-a-Bye Bunny. I love the sweet rhyme the bunny says to her baby. N loves the ears and soft pages. She crinkles them in her hands. I touch her little nose and tickle her toes when I read the lines, "With your tiny shiny nose, and your wiggly tickle toes, we will never be apart, as you're always in my heart."
Another cute book series are these finger puppet books. N loves to grab my finger as I read the simple rhyme. We are big fans of Little Fish, Little Crab, and Little Turtle too. I try to avoid her slobbering on his book because it doesn't have as much protection over the cardboard as the above books. 
We inherited Playskool's Baby Faces. N loves looking at all of the photographs. I make the face and act like the baby while we read. My 3 year olds act it out too. This book is out of print, but there are copies available on Amazon. If you search "baby faces" board book, I'm sure you can find more like it if you want to use Prime.
