    My DS1- now almost 23months- is too...which is interesting as I had always found it tricky to get him to sit still for me to read to him about 1 year ago. Now most mornings when he rises at ridiculously times in the morning (5-6am ) he'll be sitting on his bedroom floor reading (well trying to) or shoving them in my face (i'm still in bed) wanting me to read it too him (which of course i do- its nice to snuggle up in bed and read to him). He also spends alot of time during the day reading or asking me to as well- i love it.

    My DD has always been obsessed with books. She now 'reads' to her little brothers, who will sit there quietly listening. The amazing thing is we have sooo many books, but she has memorised most of them and can tell the stories very accurately, although she cann't actually read yet.

    Then again it isn't very surprising considering how much myself, DH and all of her aunties and uncles and grandparents all read. My father has a library at his house and many more books packed away in boxes (he buys at least one a day).

    DD has been like that forever. I remember when she was 9months old and we had mothers group at our house. One mum was horrified that I gave her books with 'pages' instead of board books, but she just loved them.

    My DS has been fine with paper pages for a long, long time. He's only made a few rips when he's been a bit excited about turning pages, lol.
