A seven year old was reading a book bigger than her head. Sorry, but I find that something to cheer over.

Then again, I’ll probably be standing in line at eleven o’clock with my daughter waiting to buy the last book in the series with a lot of other parents, all of us marvelling over what we are doing.

Who knows, maybe in a few years, he'll be reading Friedrich A. von Hayek, Whittaker Chambers, Leo Strauss, Irving Babbitt, and James Burnham.

I’m not complaining about Harry Potter (Book 5 is in my top 10 of books), I’m just against how the school treated the teacher. She has the right of freedom of speech and doesn’t have to be force to listen to what she doesn’t want to listen to.
