In these complex days of ongoing technological advancement, where two-year olds are Internet savvy and 10 year olds are creating iPhone applications, it’s refreshing to take a step back to a simpler time. That’s why I love Selecta’s wooden books. Made from safely treated wood and colored with water-based paints, these baby books can take on the most aggressive drooler and still live to see another day. And with gorgeously simple themes (things you find on a farm; favorite animals; vehicles) and clear, bright pictures—no words cluttering up these reads—they look equally fabulous perched on a self as they do in your munchkin’s hands.
