January/February Book List

I had a bit of an incident with this original draft over the weekend in which I unintentionally deleted the whole post replete with photos, excerpts and comments of the books I was listing.
In order to get on with life, I'm posting just a list of the books read in January and February. If I am able to, I will rewrite a new version of the book post and get that up whenever. I know I don't have to, but part of me is a major stickler for consistency. But at least for now, this is my list of books read since the beginning of this year.

  1. I am officially done Ten Ways to Destroy the Imagination of Your Child and Jason is close behind. It was reassuring. I ordered his Politically incorrect guide t woestern civilization from the library today. It sounds like a fun read. My current on-the-go list is:

    Kipling's Kim
    All About Spelling 6... you know, just for pleasure... ha!
    Eighty Acres - A eulogy to the family farm - Jager

    My favourite children's book today was Ox-cart man, by Donald Hall.
