An Ambitious Goal for this Blog

As a working mom, full time teacher, and lover of history, I have the ambition of collecting mementos of my time with own children and my students.  Some of my favorites moments are surrounded by the sharing of stories and books.  In this blog diary of a sort, I hope to record some of my thoughts, feelings, and reactions as I share books with my three-year old daughter Sophia, my almost two-year old son Thomas, and my nine and ten year old fourth grade students.  Great books make great people.  And great people make our world better.  I hope we can all benefit from the magical words authors everywhere share with us.
