Tower of (green) Babel

Though my son already had the delightful Green Start recycled/eco friendly ink books above – he was getting frustrated that he couldn’t put them into his mouth. Which is where, of course, books belong.

But yesterday, I found the new Green Start “Book Towers” - that are perfect for little hands and mouths – and safe for literary nibbling.  I bought two towers with 10 books each – which should keep us both busy for ages.

One tower contains riveting adventure “Jungle Book” like stories of animals (no, not really), and the other page turning, nail biting, stay-up-all-night-with-a-flashlight titles such as “Shapes”, “Counting” and “On The Farm”.

Okay. The stories are slightly Hemingway feeling terse  - but they are perfectly bite sized for future readers. And you won’t have to worry about all that leaded and cadmium laden ink that most books have.

These are books safe enough for the old man to throw into the sea.

Bon Appetit!
