Saturday, June 26, 2010. I love the new Blogger templates! I was never very happy with the last template I had, so I was glad to see some new ones, and had a hard time choosing one. Finally decided to stick with pink. I've been reading a lot of short stories lately- not for any particular reason, just because I keep finding good collections. Here are a few reviews and recommendations. The New York Stories. Good Evening, Mrs. Craven. A Harvest of Stories. By Dorothy Canfield Fisher. In the prologue, the a...

Thursday, November 24, 2011. Ten Ways to Destroy the Imagination of Your Child. The book is written in a similar tone as C.S. Lewis's Screwtape Letters. Then I started to notice that he rarely mentioned girls or domestic activities. All of his examples of a good imaginative life were about boys doing things that might have come straight from The American Boy's Handy Book. The hundreds of women who were force-fed in English prisons simply because they showed up at a rally? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Friday, May 15, 2009. We are not unique. I have just discovered that my family's cult movie is also someone else's cult movie. This is very hard to believe. I've been reading a memoir (you will laugh when you learn that it's called Truck: A Love Story. Then she says she and her sisters and her mother can recite every line in What's Up, Doc? I had to check to make sure that I wasn't actually related to this woman! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). The Fashion in Shrouds. Boards of Red Tulips.

Saturday, February 11, 2012. I've been reading a recent edition of John Holt's book of homeschooling, Teach Your Own. Mostly because I think John Holt is brilliant. I don't, of course, need to be convinced that homeschooling is a good idea, but sometimes it is helpful to be reminded why I'm choosing to keep my children at home instead of sending them away and getting a little peace and quiet! Beyond that, there are a number of practices, by now very common in schools all over the country, which in and of...

Sunday, March 06, 2011. Well, I persevered through The Crowded Street. And in the end I suppose it was worthwhile. Perhaps I was in the wrong mood, or the comparison with Miss Buncle's Book. Was too stark, but I felt somewhat wearied by another story about a young woman whose family, situation, and disposition were all against her. Fortunately it ended well. Then I picked up The New House. But overall I liked it much better. It was shorter, for one thing ( The Crowded Street. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
