It's a bit far for me, Thomas, but kudos for the good work. On a personal note, when my eight-year-old son was being threatened with having to redo a school year because of his reading skill, I asked him what he liked to read--he said, "Mad Magazine." I proceeded to buy every Mad Magazine and Book I could find, and by the end of the summer, he was two reading grades ahead of his classmates, not one behind. He does have a unique sense of humor to this day, though.
