At the moment, both my kids are obsessed by books. For the oldest, I get to read to her first, and then she has started reading, so then she reads Dutch back for me (while laughing at the way I pronounce Dutch words...). The youngest has only just discovered books, but it is one of her first words.

Sounds like a great book that you are reading, I will definitely have a look for it! Although it sounds a bit more like something that my wife would like better...
