I was a little unsure when i picked it up and the first few chapters i sort of had to force myself through, but then i was hooked and i couldn't put it down. Definitely changes your perspective on a lot of things. You won't be disappointed.Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04249664348857788156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748971557355406797.post-26882161090898693832010-08-25T09:49:15.123-05:002010-08-25T09:49:15.123-05:00Denise,

I always enjoyed pre-reading the books I wanted Morgan and Jenna to read--and eliminating a few before they ever got to them. ha. Hope you and Davis have some great conversations; I’m sure you will!<br /><br />I have not read The Help, but I’ve heard that it’s very good. It’s on my list. Let me know what you think if you get to it before I do.Lisa notes...https://www.blogger.com/profile/07103364395238899215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748971557355406797.post-68479891120580069442010-08-25T07:57:45.869-05:002010-08-25T07:57:45.869-05:00Lisa, I know Jeanene.

They are a great family. I just finished reading all of Davis' readers for this year so we could have a mini-book club and check to make sure he really read them! There are some tough topics to discuss but we are going to take it one bridge at a time. Someone suggested The Help to me. Have you read it?

The film examines how the creative arts open doors of communication for those with Alzheimer's, and helps rebuild quality of life too.

I don't read novels very often, so it has to be good for me to stay with it.Lisa notes...https://www.blogger.com/profile/07103364395238899215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748971557355406797.post-31807791745525913722010-08-24T07:32:48.130-05:002010-08-24T07:32:48.130-05:00You're reading so much!
