My first steps to get Timmu interested in reading

Timmu is four years now and till now have been thinking to let him take things easy and let him indulge in free play. But somehow feel that now is the time to introduce him to more serious reading.. my experiments with making him read have not been quite much successful.. can't nail a particular reason but I guess its combination of - My own laziness to set up a routine for him - He finding it more interesting to tear books than read it - he is still not comfortable recognizing words  Now what ever is the reason I want to now give it a serious thought so my first steps I took today are: 1- Ordered some kids books online - Junior Kumbhkaran - This is written by my ex-colleague( Arundhati Venkatesh) who turned author with this :) I feel excited to read out a story written by a person I know closely and below ones going by recommendations on blog of another friend Simran ( need to acknowledge to her) http://chipsnchutzpah.wordpress.com/ - Goodnight Moon -
