My goal this year is to make a few kids lifelong readers that maybe wouldn’t have been otherwise.
I love how you managed to capture this in a line. Me, on the other hand? As my husband says, I wrote a manifesto! http://thereisabookforthat.com/2015/08/30/literary-nest-building-101/ I have been thinking lots about this – which I guess, from the post, is very obvious! Have a wonderful year!
Thanks – you too!
To finish
That’s a good goal
