Otherwise I read him a lot of fairy tales when he was younger as well. The dilemma was always whether to read excitingly or to read to send a person to sleep, a similar problem to reading for myself in bed. Do I read something exciting and not go to sleep, or something boring that has me snoozing in minutes? Hearing Jo on the radio this morning I am now feeling sorry for the bullies; after all they had made their peace with Shilpa, and are now being bullied in a far more damaging way by the meejia. ‘Let those without guilt cast the first stone’, comes to mind… Don't mention the crash… I clearly remember reading to little Christopher (when he was a mere chick), his favourite was the classic The Way Things Work by David Macaulay which I see has a newish edition out.
