Jane Austen - Board Book!

Recently I was babysitting little Clara who is about 18 months old. She was sitting on my lap and directing me, "book, book" every time we finished another of her board books. I laughed out loud when I pulled this one off the bookshelf.

"Pride & Prejudice," in a board book! When Clara's mother returned, we were reading "Pride & Prejudice." I commented that I was amused to see this in a board book. Clara's mother said Clara's grandmother gave it to her for Christmas. "Never too young to start Jane Austen," she said. 

When I was looking for an image, I was surprised to see that there is a Baby Lit board book series. The second book in the series is "Romeo & Juliet."
