"Children of any age can enjoy books. Reading to infants is a great way to bond with young children, and toddlers can begin to learn their alphabet by looking at board books. Older children can choose what they want to read. But books need to be kept in good shape for anyone to enjoy them. That&amp;#039;s why books should never be put into a toy box where the spines are likely to get broken and the pages dislocated. A bookshelf is an essential piece of furniture in any child&amp;#039;s room. A standing bookshelf is preferable to a wall-mounted shelf, because children \u2014 even older children \u2014 tend to be careless in their movements and a wall-mounted shelf may fall after being bumped one time too many. Standing bookshelves represent adaptable space in a kid&amp;#039;s room: If you have more space than books, you can always use the extra for storing boxes of baseball cards, dioramas, or the latest science project. Use a low, wide bookshelf to keep the books within the child&amp;#039;s reach and to discourage climbing. Always anchor standing bookshelves to a wall with safety straps.
