I received a letter this week was from an almost-nine year old who had just finished reading The Tale of Despereaux. Her name is Rachel and she says that she likes to "read with a snack and sink into the story."
Isn't that grand?
But here's my favorite line from the letter: "Some people call books things, but I call them magic."
Magic. Yep.
Me, too, Rachel. That's what I call them, too.

My brother hated reading. My nephew hates it too, but he's a teenager. Maybe he'll change his mind later. His mom likes reading; my sister.
