We were sitting in Drew's room. I was about to go start laundry (still am...) and Scott had his latest book and was reading it. Drew was playing happily with a top on the far side of the room. I commented that Scott seemed to get a lot more reading done these last few months, now that Drew can move around and plays by himself a lot more. Scott said "sometimes" and noted that sometimes Drew wants the book, which then has to be put away.

I said that was easy to solve. Just get the book/series (I suggested Lord of the Rings) in board book format.

Scott made the mistake of trying to envision the size of Lord of the Rings in board books. *cackles*

I think you'd need a warehouse and a tall fork lift to be able to read that.
(That's funny)

And I thought Braille editions were big!

I'm not sure that I could lift a board book with illustrations that was just a chapter long!

....How would you place Drew so he could see the pages? For that matter, how big of a ladder would you need just to get to the top???
