Amazon announced a new subscription service tailored for parents and children, Fortune reported Tuesday. Available for Amazon Prime members, the subscription box will include a selection of age-appropriate books for different age groups.

Amazon divides its selections into four groups: from birth to 2 years old, 3 to 5 years old, 6 to 8 years old, and 9 to 12 years old. The first age group will receive four board books per box, while the older groups will receive two hardcover picture books or children's novels, Fortune explained.
