What Girl has been reading this year.
As I have hoped, Girl took the reins when it came to her “Reading List” this year. She rarely checked the list of “Recommended” books and would rattle off a list of things she had acquired an interest in. Uniformly, her desires were more than acceptable and it was simply a matter of requesting them from the library (or finding them in our collection) and deciding on a time scale for them to be finished.
The time scale did become an issue at one point when she felt that she didn’t have adequate time to be making progress and I felt that she wasn’t making time.
