A seventh grade girl says she loves The Outsiders so much that she left it at school over the weekend so she wouldn't finish it too quickly. I remember having that marvelous feeling when I was her age. Now I am happy just to have the time to read; a sheltering space. The good stories are too numerous.
Billy recently finished The Tiger: A True Story of Vengeance and Survival, by John Vaillant. It is about a man-eating tiger in Russia and a study of the relationship between wild animals and humans. The author has written for The New Yorker, National Geographic, and The Atlantic. Billy said the story line is very exciting.
