For your five year old niece, what about Amelia Bedelia books? They're about a lady who always takes things literally, and the trouble that results (one time when driving she was told to "bear right" and so she went left because "why would you want to go toward the bear?" She also made "date" cake by cutting up a calendar into it!! :) It's a whole series of books with different themes.
For your two year old nephew what about Eric Carl's The Very Hungry Catapillar ( I think that's the title, it might not have the "very," or it might also have a "little" in it.) It's a board book about all the different fruits and the amounts that a little caterpillar eats, and on the last page he turns into a butterfly.
