The Cat in the Hat
by Dr. Seuss
read in May, 2013
Wonderful, zany fun. The cat and his friends do all the things children are not supposed to do but do anyway, then clean up after themselves the way children rarely do. I also enjoy how nutty the plot is. Maybe picture books these days make too much...more

The Earl and The Fairy, Vol. 4 by Mizue Tani

Charlotte Brontë
“Prejudices, it is well known, are most difficult to eradicate from the heart whose soil has never been loosened or fertilised by education: they grow there, firm as weeds among stones.”
Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre

Gordon B. Hinckley
“The remedy for most marital stress is not in divorce. It is in repentance and forgiveness, in sincere expressions of charity and service. It is not in separation. It is in simple integrity that leads a man and a woman to square up their shoulders and meet their obligations. It is found in the Golden Rule, a time-honored principle that should first and foremost find expression in marriage.”
Gordon B. Hinckley, Standing for Something: 10 Neglected Virtues That Will Heal Our Hearts and Homes
