  Yeah, when I worked on literacy campaigns in our area, we tended to focus on those who could read, e.g. Learn to tech people to read, it might have said. It tends to work better. Just a little.

I see you RICH!!!

It's so good to see you!

I have taught my hubby to ENJOY reading.

I bought him books of his fave topics. He was a NON-Reader (could read, but never did) and now he'll read here and there!

YAY!

  Good to see you too. I pop in now and again, but have been running short on time the last few months.
