My kids LOVE books, so this was definitely a worthwhile investment! I'm telling you, they love books so much that while we were on vacation this past weekend, we passed a library, and they begged to go inside. =) How sweet is that? I love their simplicity! They don't need all the "bells and whistles." As long as they have a good book, they're happy. ("Aunt Kiwi" knows how they feel, don't you?) =)

Ted Dekker is AWESOME! If you have not read his books, you will really enjoy them!
