Oh, I don't even bother to sneak...I just take my children's books whenever they're out of their hands. And I am not above: "Don't you have schoolwork to do?" And then curling up with the target book.

We do have a strict rule on books received as personal gifts, though. Until the recipient has finished the book, no one else is allowed to poach it.
