Ah this speaks to me so much. And yes to suggestions for a Lego loving 5 year old (that isn’t yet another set of legos), a toddler and an ski/outdoorsy person if you have them. And something else you have on your wish list. Why not?
I clicked through to read your link on the Cut's take on kids' literature. It only partially factors into your essay about freedom from the attention economy, but I 100% agree with the plug for librarians. I'm a huge personal fan of libraries, and the human factor that libraries provide in that 1 environment and function feels important in the resistance against the results of an otherwise somewhat self-sustaining industry algorithm to perpetuate the same reading preferences.
