Of Tolkien and Teachers, Potter and Parents

Just a quick fly-by post...

This is worth reading: "J.R.R. Tolkien Has A Touching Message For His Former Teachers In Newly Discovered Letter."

This also deserves a look: from NPR, "Harry Potter And The Forbidden Books."

Really, really enjoyed that HP article. It just goes to demonstrate the point I was trying to make years ago about the potential benefits of letting your children read the books even if you don't actually approve of them. There can be tremendous benefits.
