After Selena bathed the two children and prepared them for bed, Juniper docilely took a picture book herself and got into bed. “Just read me one picture book today, Mommy. After that, you keep Jamie company."

Jameson looked at Juniper's bookshelf in the room, the dazzling array of picture books on the shelf a sight he'd never seen. "What is a picture book? Is it a book?" He gazed at Selena with his head tilted. "Ha ha, you don't even know what a picture book is!" Juniper teased.

"But I really don't know what it is. The teacher at my house doesn't teach us with such books. My brother's books, in particular, are really thick. It hurt badly when it hit my leg." "Oh yes, Jamie and Jojo are both incredible, Mommy! They know a ton of words, and they can even read a whole book!"

Unbidden, a wave of anguish flooded Selena. The Fowler Family must be very strict in their children's education. She had a bit of an understanding of how things were after her interaction with them during this time. After all, they both hadn't even seen the cakes, bread, as well as dessert she made previously and loved them so much! In the beginning, she thought Pierre was strapped for cash, thus couldn't pamper the children, but she later understood that the Fowler Family was very strict and didn't allow them to eat sweets. The food they ate was also very dull, so they loved the myriad of designs and tastes of the food she made. They must have started learning their alphabets and words very early, so Jojo probably learned even more.

Selena then read a picture book to Juniper. Thereafter, Jameson walked back and forth before the bookshelf, thoroughly captivated by the books with beautiful pictures. In the end, Selena allowed him to choose a few books before taking him to his room.
