It's why I love to read _The Best American Essays_ series (though if you have another recommendation for such writing I would enjoy knowing about it). On another note--I just gave my 9yo dd _Little House in the Highlands_. She said later, "Mom, *why* did you wait so long to give this to me?" Sorry, sweetheart, it was packed away. But there are many delicious books just like it in the same packing box.:-) Much gratitude to you for the written treasures you share with us.

Unrelated, my big reader doesn't want to come to family story time right now, he wants to read on his own instead. Have you gone through phases like this, and what do you advise? If I am going to get him hooked, any picks that would work for a six year old boy and a four year old girl? We did have a riotous time with Mrs Piggle Wiggle over the last few weeks, but then his little sister got on a fairy tale kick and he totally checked out -- I need some new books to keep them both happy and engaged.
