+ | 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! | ||
+ | <br clear="all"> | ||
− | + | =Buyable Books= | |
− | + | These books can be bought at the book store and/or come as starter books for a bookshelf. | |
− | + | ||
− | |||
− | {| | + | ==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. | ||

+ | ===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 [[Game Help:Sims 3 Toddlers#Skills|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. | ||

Contents |
[edit] A Bibliophile's Dream
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] Skill Books
Sims can read these to improve general skills like cooking and handiness.
[edit] Logic
These books raise the Logic Skill.
[edit] Cooking
These books raise the Cooking Skill.
[edit] Handiness
These books raise the Handiness Skill.
[edit] Charisma
These books raise the Charisma Skill.
[edit] Gardening
These books raise the Gardening Skill.
[edit] Photography
This book raises the Photography Skill.
Icon | Title | Author | # of Pages | Skill Level | Price | EP | Comments |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Photography Vol. 1: Taking off the Lens Cap | Henrich Van Steerderdang | 199 | 0 - 3 | 50 | Can only be bought in Egypt. |
[edit] Martial Arts
This book raises the Martial Arts Skill.
Icon | Title | Author | # of Pages | Skill Level | Price | EP | Comments |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Martial Arts Vol. 1: Wax On Philosophic | Shan Cai | 199 | 0 - 3 | 50 | Can only be bought in China. |
[edit] Riding
These books raise the Riding Skill.
Icon | Title | Author | # of Pages | Skill Level | Price | EP | Comments |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Riding Vol. 1: Zen and the Art of Not Falling Off a Horse | Carlos Hurtado | 180 | 0 - 3 | §50 | Pets | ||
Riding Vol. 2: The Galloping Guru | Carlos Hurtado | 201 | 3 - 6 | §500 | Pets | ||
Riding Vol. 3: Sunsets and Other Fun Things to Ride Into | Carlos Hurtado | 177 | 6 - 10 | §750 | Pets |
[edit] Fishing
Fishing skill books teach which baits are used for particular fish, but do not add to the sim's fishing skill level.
[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.
[edit] Recipes
As your sim's cooking skill increases they can read recipes to create more complex and satisfying meals. For more information on all the recipes available as well as cooking skill, see: Cooking & Recipes. Note: once one of these books have been read once, it will be destroyed.
[edit] Career Specific Books
These books are obtained via career challenges and other special opportunities, and cannot be bought at the store.
