Before you start building your children's library, an important disclosure.

We are an affiliate for Book Depository. We have chosen to link to Book Depository because we love their website and feel they provide a great deal, which we would like to share with our beloved readers. We do not get paid by Book Depository to review books or write about them. Anything written on this blog is our own honest opinion. If you click a Book Depository link in our website and then purchase a book, we do get a 5% commission from the sale. However, this in no way changes our review of a book or what we have written about it on our website. Thank you.
