Jacoby's Reading

Books and balls interest Jacoby most right now. He especially loves three books. He loves the farm book his Aunt Megan and Uncle Mark gave him (pictured below), a small children's picture book, and especially the Ultimate Visual Dictionary. I've had to hide the latter because he will sit for 45 minutes or more thumbing through its pages and won't take "no" for an answer if the book is in his view. The benefit, I hope, is that Jacoby is learning the names of lots of things. He now recognizes nouns used for sports, travel, animals, and human body parts. I'm interested in getting him another picture book in another language at some point (French, German, Greek, or Latin?), but for now at least, English provides him with plenty of new words. Perhaps he'll grow up to be a bibliophile.
