    That is so sad that you think that. It is you making judgements about what your daughter might or might not like based on her gender - not her! There is absolutely no reason to suppose that she won't LOVE that selection of books which includes dinosaurs and aliens as much as any stereotypical pink/fairy/unicorns/ponies stuff!

    Edit: just noticed that WH smiths are selling so-called boys activity bundles and girls activity bundles, so they too are propagating this sexist nonsense - how sad!

    The board books came loose although sum are individually wrapped but this time the picture books were all wrapped together x

    Having a daughter who indeed loves aliens & dinosaurs, I sort of agree with your general sentiment. However perhaps the poster knows her own daughter well enough to "make judgements" on what she would like??? I think your post comes over a little harsh on the poster who made the comment...
  • Are all the books in the picture bundles the same does anyone know?

    If it is the same as last year then every bundle will be different x
