Book Excerpt for the Day

    “It’s the best thing I’ve ever read!” Milo declares vociferously.  “It’s even better than that book with the chocolate factory!”


    “What’s it about?” I ask.


    “There are all these men and ladies and they wear strange costumes and they have magical powers which they use to help people.  It’s not like normal books, though, it’s got pictures as well as words!”


    Megan nods her agreement.  His enthusiasm makes me proud.  I’m glad I gave him such an intriguing gift.


    “It’s a bit childish if you ask me,” Mother remarks.


    “They are children,” I remind her.
