C has just turned 2 and goes through stages with books. Some weeks she won't pick up a book unless asked, other weeks she can't get enough and wants them read and re-read. The past fortnight it has been the latter. Book after book, again and again. I have even got more books out of my hidden stockpile to satisfy her need. C is currently on the borderline. She still loves her simple board story books but more and more now she is starting to listen to, and enjoy, longer and more complex stories.
