One of the reasons he was so well suited to the task of homeschooling, is that he languished in a day in which he could spend many hours with books. He loved books with nothing but words upon words, and he loved books with well drawn pictures also. Sometimes, when he would tell me something which seemed about 7-10 years more advanced than I thought he should be, I would ask him where he heard that, and he would tell me that "it was in chapter 17 of Jane's Aviation" or a collegiate textbook on environmental science. Good books are simply sacred. They are evidence of time spent on Earth and of the learning of others before us. Again, I like that nothing is wasted.Alexandra of Virginiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17383184282535835905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2543261107340081741.post-60788170404288109972012-05-11T16:40:55.337-04:002012-05-11T16:40:55.337-04:00ack. dear friend...don't you even get me start...ack. dear friend...don't you even get me started on books...you already know that i have a very unhealthy fascination with books - bahahahah!<br /><br />your friend,<br />kymber<br /><br />(do you think that Daniel would be interested in all of the encyclopaedia sets that i have collected?)kymberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02607117635648274823noreply@blogger.com
