Read More In A BookThe best thing she did for her son was take him to the library. There, it was as though his world exploded. It was such a big place. So many different sections. An upstairs and a downstairs too. And places where he could sit and read some of those books. It was as he started […]
Read More Dryden Shorts: The Blessing of a BookOne of the things I love about reading is how important it is to stop to pay attention to it.

Read More What Is The Deal With A Reading Plan?I love words. That’s not the first time I’ve said that and it won’t be the last.
