“Wow, massive collection of children’s board books.”
Was surprised too. Until I realized my son's little library is worth one iPhone Pro Max plus a brand-new top-of-the-line PlayStation.
PSA for incoming parents: children’s books cost as much as the self-help books for adults.
10 to 15 USD apiece, on average.
“Why need so many? Pretty sure those stories already have their iterations on YouTube.”
Maybe. But I’d still pick the books.
Because books are worth the investment.
In case you haven’t heard the cliché: A book is a portal,
A book is a teacher.
A book doesn’t just tell you something,
It transforms your child.
Quietly, privately, one page at a time.
You don’t always notice it happening.
But the version of your child who closes the book is never the same as the one who opened it.
