Once the book is completely read to the toddler they can pick it up and read it by themselves. If you put the book on the ground the toddler can read it without having another sim read it to them first.

[edit] A Bibliophile's Dream

Bookstore.png

Remember when reading time for the sims was that one red generic book in The Sims 1? Well, bookshelves have since evolved from that one defacto book to over a hundred different books in The Sims 3!

[edit] Buyable Books

These books can be bought at the book store and/or come as starter books for a bookshelf.


[edit] General

  • Sims can read these books for pleasure and enjoyment.
  • A sim will get better enjoyment out of reading books that relate to their traits. For example, a Flirty and/or Hopeless Romantic sim will enjoy reading books of the Romance genre more than an Unflirty sim.

[edit] Sheet Music

Similar to the way the fishing books work, sheet music books do not add to actual guitar skill, but instead allow sims to add more songs to their repertoire. Once one of these books have been read once, it will be destroyed.

[edit] Child Development

Child development books can be read to toddlers by teen, young adult, adult, or elder sims. The books help increase the skill level of the toddler. Once the book is completely read to the toddler they can pick it up and read it by themselves. If you put the book on the ground the toddler can read it without having another sim read it to them first.

Sims with the Childish trait can read and enjoy a Child Development book regardless of age.
