What to do with all the books?

Seeking suggestons on how to get our kids to enjoy looking through non-fiction books that are very interesting and educational. We are book collectors. We're avid book readers as well, but we seem to collect books faster than we can read them. We have hundreds of fantastic books with great information in them—from science to […]
