Little one is 2 mths old now. Is it too early to start reading to him? Are there any books recommended for babies? How should I start introducing books to him? Thanks!

You can actually start any time! Reading is a great habit to cultivate and it is good to start young. Typically, for babies younger than 6 months old, books with high contrast pictures (and with little or no text) are recommended. This is because the baby's vision is still developing, and comprehending words isn't really the main point at this stage. You can also use finger puppets to engage the baby while telling the story. Be animated. Also, it is a good chance for bonding as your baby will find comfort in your voice. Varying your tone will keep him/her interested.
