  2. (1) Do you provide your child (or child you have some influence) with fiction or non-fiction books? great niece is 5 so I get her fun books but also books that have a lesson to learn in them... My great great nephew is 7 so he is learning to read so it is fun books.

    (2) Which do you prefer for yourself - fiction or non-fiction? I usually go with fiction but don't have a problem with non fiction. I am a major reader at least 2 books a week or more.

    (3) Do you have a SPECIFIC Nat'l Geo Kids book you RECOMMEND? When my great great nephew was 4 and was visiting from TN I sat down with him about what he wanted for his birthday. He wanted dinosaurs books BUT not baby books. The first book I got him was (thanks amazon I was to check) National Geographic Little Kids First Big Book of Dinosaurs and have got him all kinds of dino books and stuff
