[ET(end tyranny)]

He started out with all the dinosaur books we could find. And not the kiddy cartoonish ones either! His teachers were putting dinosaur names in his spelling lists. A couple of teachers had wanted us to stop allowing the dino books. We let him have them. Figured in time he would move on. He did. Told this to his present teachers and they agreed we did the right thing. You NEVER want to curtail an interest in reading.

Sure you might wsant to suggest other material, but since dinosaurs seemed relatively harmless, why prohibit it?

Humerous story. He was about 6 or 7, and I went into the kitchen and noticed a terrible mess on the floor near the refrigerator. Asked him what happened. Took a while but the story came out. He was pretending to be an Oviraptor. (The egg stealing dinosaur). He dropped a few eggs, and tried to clean up the mess, though not too well! LOL I couldn't be angry, it was just too funny!

LOL! That almost sounds like something from a Calvin and Hobbes cartoon!

Your son sounds like a very cool kid. I'll bet he makes you proud.
