I am a single mom of two silly, lively kids, ages 9 and 6. I'm also a teacher in a high school. Life is hectic, and I seldom have time to read, but I am desperately trying to instill the love of reading in my kids, both at home and in the classroom. On a personal level, I LOVE to laugh so I am particularly interested in books that make me chortle, snort, snicker, guffaw, and just plain ol' laugh out loud! I use reading to invigorate, inspire, enlighten, and rejuvenate my soul. And, I also tend to lean toward the non-fiction side of the library. So... I'm very glad to have this site to pick others' brains and share the good stuff! « less
