These snowy days find me hunkered down
with a Paula Brackston series. So loving
it . . . might add that the joy of reading is
one of the greatest gifts I've ever received.
Of course, I learned to read properly in
1st grade, but I had already taught myself
the basics. I'm ever so grateful that my
family read every evening . . . what a
way to be enticed into a world of magic!
I'm fairly certain that this led to becoming
a Lang Arts teacher . . . 40 plus years. I
rather love the way I taught reading. In
today's world, there are so many ways to
do so.
Think; newspapers and funny pages,
children's shows with the lines written
at the bottom of the screen, sophisticated
comics, e-books, Kindles, Nooks, audio
books . . . no end to the manner in which
reading is delivered to the doorstep of
our hearts!
The one thing I truly prize about winter
is that precious seduction into quiet time
by the fire with book in hand. What a gift!
"Shall I cook, clean, or do the grocery
shopping? Okay, reading it is."
Crazy Book Lady
lend me some magic
mongst the pages of unknown
never never land
