“We’re going to warn you in advance; your child will not put this book down. Even better, it keeps children voluntarily off the screens and creating or exploring all the wonderful things the book has to offer…This book will grow with your children and will probably be something that you will want to pass on to future generations.” – The National Parenting Center Seal of Approval
