...VERY HAPPY Mother/teacher dance!!!! (Similar to the kidneybean but with its own unique steps ;). A few of you know about this but I just have to share.... Daniel just finished a 12 chapter book in 5 days flat!!! That is a huge achievment for him, his reading (or lack of reading) was the main reason I pulled him from school. Not only did he read it - he understood it, enjoyed it, giggled over it, got sad about it - and learnt neat new stuff about conservation, the Hawaiin Islands and the USA in general!

I really, really recommend these books to anyone with kids in a similar age range (depending on their reading level). They are written by a mother/daughter team - Gloria Skurzynski and Alane Ferguson. OH! I just found their email addy's and a site address in the back of the book, I think I'll write and tell them how impressed I am! This is part of a series of books about the same family involved in wildlife conservation BTW and (cleverly) feature an older brother and his younger sister as the main characters - kind of covers the gender thing. :) He has another to read next week, based in Florida.

Whose been to Hawaii BTW? I need some info - general background stuff so that we can do a short summary study about it. :) Next question.... (Diane looks innocent) ...who knows anything about Florida? ;) LOL!!
