Even during my peanut butter days, books were the one thing I never refused my son. A child can have too many toys but NEVER too many books.

Amen.

........You may have tangible wealth untold;
........Caskets of jewels and coffers of gold.
........Richer than I you can never be-
........I had a Mother who read to me.
