What Makes It Uncommon

Your little one might be so little they don’t even know the alphabet yet, but you can still ignite a lifetime love of reading. Each of these enchanting wooden blocks describes a different literary genre—mystery, romance, sci-fi, and more—with an engaging definition, a stack of subgenres (like “cozy” and “gumshoe” for mystery), and a list of archetypal characters, all enlivened by colorful artwork. And while they’re on their way to becoming budding bibliophiles, your tot can enjoy hours and hours of creative stacking and building play.
