Xingu And Other Stories | Wharton, Edith

pick

Okay obviously there'd be a reason Wharton has stood the test of time, so I shouldn't be surprised, but... wow these were impeccably crafted short stories. Wharton is added to my list of how-the-heck-have-I-not-read-them-before authors. Will definitely check out at least one of her novels.

Also @andrea4 if I don't finish our book in time for bookclub... blame this book. #sidetracked #sorrynotsorry

Andrea4 Well if i fall asleep during the movie, blame your terribly wonderful beanbag chair! 6y

llwheeler @Andrea4 Lol 6y

BarbaraBB She wrote some great books. I‘ve read four of them (not yours) and loved them all! 6y

llwheeler @BarbaraBB Awesome. I think I'll try The Age of Innocence next 6y

The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens | Sean Covey

So, I bought my son this book as he is entering “high school” (he‘s homeschooled/unschooled so it‘s kind of all relative at this point). I decided to browse through it just to see how it could be useful - and now I‘m full out reading it. I know there is one for adults but this one is quite good so far. And, even more importantly, it‘s engaging (a must for the intended audience). Anyhow....#sidetracked #stolehisbook

kyraleseberg I had to read this years ago in my high school psych class & really enjoyed it 👍 7y

TheWordJar We homeschool, too, and though my oldest is just getting ready to enter the middle school years, I‘m always on the lookout for future resources! 7y

TrishTheBibliophile @TheWordJar I would definitely recommend it, but I‘ll follow up with how he likes it - since I guess that‘s most important 😝 They have a journal that goes with it as well. I didn‘t buy that as I figured we could talk through the chapters together but it is available! 7y
