He was hilarious there even though he only had a few lines. You are right, what a loss.Marianne https://www.blogger.com/profile/11810275740213848634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1009417175818512962.post-45782324045929708932021-07-26T19:15:39.161+02:002021-07-26T19:15:39.161+02:00Mitch Hedberg was very wise.

I saw kids the same age, some would struggle with the easiest books while others already read whole novels. It doesn't help any of them if you challenge one too much and hold the other one back.Marianne https://www.blogger.com/profile/11810275740213848634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1009417175818512962.post-38799058096523525452021-07-24T11:19:10.455+02:002021-07-24T11:19:10.455+02:00Well done, Lark.

I remember having a talk with one of my sons and his friend once about a decision made by a teacher that they didn't agree with. I told them what they should do and my son's friend said, wow, I wish my parents were like that, they are of the opinion that the teacher is always right. Nope, not always, we need to question what other people are doing and saying. Doesn't mean we should disobey them but with a good reason, we can always oppose.Marianne https://www.blogger.com/profile/11810275740213848634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1009417175818512962.post-88140448009233417982021-07-24T02:00:04.180+02:002021-07-24T02:00:04.180+02:00I wholeheartedly agree with the quote "Every ...I wholeheartedly agree with the quote "Every book is a children’s book if the kid can read!" Children shouldn't be restricted to only picture books. If they are motivated and ready, they should have the opportunity to read longer books that are more challenging as well.Lectrice Voracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11067403176756169827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1009417175818512962.post-26029215969338002852021-07-23T19:02:25.827+02:002021-07-23T19:02:25.827+02:00I love that Mitch Hedberg quote!

It reminds me of when I was in elementary school and the librarian kept questioning the books I wanted to check out because she thought I was too young for them. But I was stubborn...and I checked them out anyway. ;DLark https://www.blogger.com/profile/13777891312147377769noreply@blogger.com
