Welcome to a new series we’re calling Plenty of Options where we’ll pick a category of stuff and share way too many options. We hope you enjoy this overabundance! Today we’re diving into the strange literary niche of kid-friendly coffee table books.
We like to take an expansive view of what constitutes a children’s book. Here is a sprawling list of books that were written with kids in mind and a few that may not have been. These are books that we like, too, many of which have pleasing covers and/or artwork. These are books that we can leave out on the coffee table in our homes for anyone to peruse at any age. Look. During a time of life with small children when you will most certainly read the same terrible book over and over for what seems like an actual decade, it’s nice to pepper in a few that everyone can enjoy. Or try to, anyway.
