Abstract
When I gave my children their first books, they literally ate them up. Their gnawed-on, drool-smeared, cardboard books are some of my favorite relics of bygone baby days—Pat the Bunny and Goodnight Moon in ruined, well-loved pieces. I like to think of books this way, not just as cultural productions, creative expressions or communicative acts, but as things that we consume with the joy and intensity of toothless infants.
