Give Thanks...For People Making A Difference

 A friend of Mine started a project. She's a teacher and she wants to make a difference in her students's lives, and her goal is to dot this through literature. By doing this, she understands a couple of important things. One, she knows the power of the written word, and two, she sees the impact a book can have on a child. 

If you click: HERE, you can access her site to get more details of this project. She's asking for donations to fund the project. It is a worthy and noble cause.

With a million choices for entertainment, I feel many have pushed books to the side in favor of flashier, snappier, screen-based options. It's come at a cost, a cost of education, a cost of understanding other people and cultures, a cost society will have to pay beck for generations.

Imagine a world where all all electronic media no longer exists, a world without, TVs, computers, smartphones (or any phones...), a world where games are not of the video kind and imagination once again reclaims its place as the most powerful force known to man.

Books have that power, and they are even more powerful for a chid.

Check out the site and help if you can. I'm thankful people are creating art and helping others find it.
