rotaryphones wants to know: Where does the apostrophe go in "children's book"?

It also makes me pay extra attention to the rules explained, because I don't want to disappoint Fraser. ;)

Aha ha ha ha! Yes. He does get so disappointed. :D

They're so very good at covering the bases, there in the 2-7. :-)
