A perfect gift for any age, the series offers both hardcover and paperback options.
In addition to the series, Just the Right Book! offers hand-picked collections chosen with your little reader in mind. Whimsically wrapped in reusable storage boxes for boys, girls, and young children, each library also includes adorable book or a colorful critter.
These libraries are a wonderful way to encourage imagination and curiosity, and are appropriate for children ages 0-15. Customized by gender, age, interests, and whether the child has siblings, these libraries put classics, new and old, into the hands of children.
The young child's library is designed for children from birth to age eight. For these children, libraries range in price, based on the number of books included, from $99-$499 for the deluxe library. This deluxe library, packaged in a delightful canvas tote personalized with the child's name, is composed of an exceptional collection of approximately two dozen children's selections. This library is designed as a foundation of reading for the child, each item chosen as an important book for those early years of literacy development. In fact, research indicates that such development begins at birth, long before any formal education, and that reading to a child provides the richest language exposure for babies.
Libraries for children ages 9-15 come in four sizes (based on quantities of books) with prices from $99-299. The storage box for girls features a vibrant, flower-festooned pattern; for the boys the design is contemporary camouflage. These libraries can reflect the child's interests - facts or fantasy, pirates or penguins - just share that information while the order is being placed with the prompts provided. You can be assured that the array of books created will appeal to their unique preferences, and encourage their reading journey.
