Warning, PDF file.
They always say, when encouraging parents to encourage kids to read, that parents should "appear to take an interest" in the kid's books. *laughs* We had to steal our books back from our parents if we ever wanted to read them! Do you know how friggin' annoying it is to find your mom or dad reading the book you "lost" right as you got to the good part???
Stupid advice.

Date: 2005-02-24 02:01 am (UTC)Every single book in the series seemed to mysteriously disappear as soon as I put it down. Living in a house with three other voracious readers and only one copy of the book everyone wants to read does not make for peaceful reading. It makes for ninja-style sneak thievery (which is fun in its own right, but not when you're in the middle of a Quidditch match).
