| Below you will find a very abbreviated list of some of our all-time favorite books for children, as well as some newer titles that we thought you should know about. We have one of the largest and best selections of children’s books in New England, and no single list could ever do it justice. One thing is certain: Children should be read to from birth, and be encouraged to read on their own for the rest of their lives. Readers generally do better in school, are smarter, happier and more successful than non-readers. So turn off that TV and get them a good book. |
