Jun. 21st, 2012 10:45 amAnother little memo from Ana's school.
All emphasis is mine this time.
( Read more... )
Aside from the obvious ("suggestive" reading list? Three different ways to talk about Barnes and Noble?) and the fact that I'm certain there should be more commas in there somewhere, there's the little fact that the Stapleton Library has been closed for a year and counting. They're not opening until next spring, I believe. Which is fine, because they kinda suck compared to the just-as-close St. George Library, but since she obviously had to go to the website to get their phone number you'd think she might've taken note of the fact that they're closed.
Of course, then you turn to the reading list for 4th grade and you read gems such as "Classic tale of a sleepy little village of Roundbrook catch wind that there's a dragon running loose in the countryside" and "His desperate to find out who he is and is haunted by dreams of a big castle and a terrifying escape on a boat. Who can he trust to help him solve the mystery."
So I guess I'm stopping by the office again today and pointing out that, at the bare minimum, they need a god damn proofreader. This is ridiculous. This isn't even stylistic, it's just riddled with errors.
