We put “kid” coffee table books out too! I love some of the writers suggestions. Some my family’s favorites included The Macmillan Visual Dictionary, Arms & Armor: Highlights from the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Star Wars Complete Vehicles, Countries of the World: Our World in Pictures, and The Way Things Work.
