Just a little reminder for my students, that I'll have the summer reading lists on Friday. We can go over the rewards for reading the most of the list then, and maybe have a bit of a competition with ourselves.

While we're at it (and this isn't just for students): if you could which author would you like to go back in time and meet? And why?

Why go back in time? Past authors have already said what's important and you risk ruining good art with a bad artist.

Seems a little obvious why back in time. We don't know future authors here.

Well going forward in time is slower but works too.

I still don't think there's a value to talking to someone who seems good on paper but was a flawed and petty human like anyone else. Whether it's possible or not.

The flaws are what makes them human. I think that's interesting.

There's a whole world of people with flaws.

Seriously? Homework over the summer hols? Were you treated unkindly as a child?

Do you consider reading unkind?

No, you ninny! Homework over the hols, is

It's not homework, Doctor. It's completely extra credit.

And please don't call me a ninny on a post that requires students to treat me like an adult.

Oh.

Still.

I want to see the reading list.

JEDI HAND WAVE! YOU DID NOT SEE ME CALL YOUR TEACHER A NINNY. Even though she can be the queen of ninnies sometimes

Are there any comic books on this list?

I can see about a graphic novel.

That works! I like manga too! Sailor Moon!

Seems the main problem is finding one that's age appropriate.

Yeah a lot of them at the library in Beach City were in the adult section.

Can people who aren't your students participate in the reading thing?

I see no reason why not. I can put the list online.

It'll be a little challenge for me.

Always good to keep yourself challenged, and I am, of course, always willing to explain things you may not understand since you didn't grow up in a world like this one.

That would be great, Clara. I'd really appreciate that.

Oh, I've got to have a look at those when they're finished!

You're not going to read any of them with me then?

Suppose I could, but it is possible I've already read them. Still! Can't hurt to have another go.

What about you, Clara? Who would you meet that you haven't already?

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Agatha Christie. The Brontë sisters.

What about you?

Oh, you'd have liked Agatha! She is brilliant.

On Earth? Well, suppose I've met most of them now! Then again... Poe! Never did get around to delving into that mystery.
