Don't Dumb It Down


     This is a worthwhile piece about the importance of reading quality literature to children.

This is a gift I give my children daily. (Not to mention what it does for me!) Our next read aloud is Tanglewood Tales by Nathaniel Hawthorne. By the way, the Real Deal is that my eleven year old independently reads and comprehends these weighty books better than I do, but I'm working on it.
