As always, I'm enjoying this newest edition of The No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency. There is just something so soothing about these books. They're simple but deep and the characters...ah! the characters are wonderful!
Back to school tomorrow. I begin each block with about 20 minutes of silent reading. I can't tell you how many kids have admitted that, because they were forced to read, they finally completed a book on their own. And their teacher gets to read, too! It's a win-win for everyone!

I was not a reader when I was a kid until my English teacher made the whole class read Mysterious Island. I thought I was going to die! Well, I got so into that book that I finished it before the rest of the class. I never would have picked up a book if that teacher didn't force me to. lol
I'm glad you had such a nice week off with plenty of time for you. I wish we would have had 20 minutes of reading in school - I would have been in heaven. Have a great week Linda.
Grateful for shariing this
