Reading and Books

I just wanted to comment on reading and books.  I have included a couple of photos of Jackson's collection of books.  My mother purchased books for me as I child and taught me the importance of taking care of them.  They have been packed away for many years and I decided to get them out about a month ago.  I know Jackson won't reading for a long time but I can at least be reading to him until then.  As I was going through them, I actually remembered many of them and enjoyed going through them.  Many of them are worn and some have even been mended with tape but the stories are still good.  The collection you see in the photos are just some of the books  I could fit in the two boxes I have them in.  The others are still in the closet.  When I read to him, I sit by his crib and read and show him the pictures.  He will actually focus on them when I put them in front of him.  It is really pretty neat.
