Reading Aloud: An Almost Magical Entry Point for Kids in the World of Books
Books are one delight that all children should be introduced to as early as possible in their lives. For a parent there is no feeling quite like the first time you read to your son or daughter.

Digging
The click of heels fades.
Silence crashes over him in waves.
Sadness contends with rage.

Dedication To The Job!
“You look smart. Are you off somewhere nice?”, said the man operating the luggage gate at London Victoria’s mainline station. (Being blind this gentleman has assisted me onto trains on numerous occasions hence his familiarity in speaking to me in this manner).
“No, just work”, I replied.
“But its Sunday Kevin!”, he said with obvious surprise.

Where satisfaction, once obtained, they are gone.
