So this little baby is MY solution to Childrens BOOKS- which I have coming out of my ears at this point. I am GLAD my kids have so many options to read, but I don't like having them out and displayed.  I have two of these little benches and what I love about them besides storage and seating is... VERSATILITY> My other one I use for Toys! (I've had Clients use these as LAUNDRY bins too!)
