Putting books in the hands of babies and toddlers

Introduce a child to the right books at the right age and they'll be hooked on books for life...

Books should be fun, reading isn't a chore, it's  a joy to be shared with the next generation, and the earlier the better.

Books are precious, but it's what they contain that's the precious part, they're not some breakable ornament to be left on a shelf, they're to be opened and read, and yes, creased and maybe even torn, how else is a new reader going to learn how to handle a book, other than by handling as many as possible from as young as possible.

So put books in the hands of babies and toddlers and give them a precious gift - the love of books.
