Still pondering that one." Lissa, Give "The Attic Mice" by Ethel Pochocki a try...unless you've already read it. It's OOP but a total delight and worth finding! ; ) Ethel Pochocki is the author of "Once Upon a Time Saints". Btw, I got to Ch. 14 of "The Penderwicks" before I maxed out my 6 week reserve at the library. I'm going to recheck it to finish it. I was getting attached to those girls. : ) Perhaps my girls will enjoy it quicker. “I’m now expected to produce another read-aloud equally enchanting. Still pondering that one.”

In our house, it would take Mr. Putty a month to reach all those destinations." Well, we've been binging on books lately, due to some pregnancy-related mobility problems I'm having. I park myself on the sofa and read all morning. This is one of our "high tide" times, for sure! Currently we've got an English history going, an American history, poetry (Frost and Longfellow), As You Like It, selections from 50 Famous Stories and Famous Men of Greece, and now the book of Norse myths. Plus there's a Rose-only read-aloud (Old Yeller) and a Rose-and-Bean ditto (A Lion to Guard Us), and assorted picture books. It's very Charlotte Mason-y around here these days. We finally finished The Penderwicks (which they continued to howl about right up to the final page) and I'm now expected to produce another read-aloud equally enchanting.
