I haven’t forgotten about book club this month. I had these great plans to read The One and Only Ivan with the boys, but this dumb cough lingers and I can’t read aloud for long. I’ve tried, but I end up scratching my throat. So. Time to let go of the dream and read it by myself, which I know I can do quickly. Besides, I’ve heard from several of you that it’s great, and I want to read what you all are talking about!
Wednesday. We’re doing this. Book club discussion on The One and Only Ivan!
No way could I have read this aloud to a child my first time through. You’ll know what I mean when you get there.
I’m sure you will have it done in one day. I agree with Shaina though, I’m not sure that I would’ve made it through this tale with my daughter.
