I loved this. Though I did start with the any book any time, I faltered later when they'd pick a graphic novel for 20$, that the'd finish in the car ride home. I had to stop.. It got too expensive. (great problem to have) I had to insist on what we call "chapter books", for money reasons alone. I love graphic-novels/comics but when your kid reads 50$ of books in one sitting you've got to draw a line. Now they're both on KU.

I really loved the "let them get bored."



Still not there yet, but my 8 year old will munch 2 no-graphics books in two days (prices are much lower though, 5 to 10 eur/usd a book).

But as we are on the topic of librarians, his two library cards will see more use :)
