As far as the book concerns, you could write a little something personal in the front of each book and maybe it would hold more of a keepsake value then?
I've been looking all over amazon for special books for my dcks. I found Carl Sams ll books about nature/winter/photography. I love them because the pictures are gorgeous; I think those are the ones I'm looking towards for the dcks. Or if you have a local author that could sign them; for example, Reeve Lindbergh lives close by and every once in awhile visits a book store or library and does book signings.
