Last night, Nathan offered to read me one of his favorite stories. Who can turn down an offer like that?!? Sometimes people ask me if he's reading "at grade level." I have no idea. Some of the things he reads are probably "grade level," while others are picture books and still others are books or magazines for adults. What is infinitely more important is that he reads (abundantly, probably a lot more than what a "typical" fourth grader would read) because he enjoys it, and because it satisfies his need for information. Imagine how boring life would be if we all could only read what someone else determined was appropriate for our age! What IS grade level for a 39 year old these days? :) Hmmmm. . . .
