Fables: The Dark Ages by Bill Willingham

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


I didn't like it. The title says it all. Very Dark Ages. :( Unfortunately, this is the story of all wars and their unintended consequences.

Because It's True

You Are Special by Max Lucado

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


I read this book every year to my students; this year I might read it on day one. I classify it as a "fun book" with no lesson to be learned, but it's simply not true. It has a deep message that must be learned. Maybe I should move it to a "theme" book, so students will find the deeper meaning.

What a privilege to share this message with my students. And to remind myself that it's true about them and about me. At this time of year, I need to remember that they are special.
