Devouring Ideas

Mariel accidentally read (inhaled) Bard of Avon by Diane Stanley a couple of weeks ago, forgetting that we were planning to savor it slowly over the next few months.

I will now order Good Queen Bess. And hide it.

I am contemplating friendly little post-its on the inside title pages of future schoolbooks:

Do Not Read This Book If You Are Mariel or Cornflower or Triss. Reserved For Future School Use. Find something else. I still love you. Yes, we will go to the library soon. Happy reading.
