I also don't like that 'read 20 minutes a day' for kids. Many will treat it as a chore and quit after 20 minutes.Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15045554938847356871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147049442316958074.post-28928510003855439722016-04-21T10:04:14.003-04:002016-04-21T10:04:14.003-04:00Haven't seen it but the trailers looked intere...Haven't seen it but the trailers looked interesting.Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15045554938847356871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147049442316958074.post-60088394251456261982016-04-20T03:29:50.171-04:002016-04-20T03:29:50.171-04:00Colin Firth - yum :) And the lake scene was inspir...Colin Firth - yum :) And the lake scene was inspired! We have to watch the second half of the series with my mother on special days like her birthday and mother's day. It's too long to watch it all, but I have lost count how many times we have seen it.Tasha Duncan-Drakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12591239019422681163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147049442316958074.post-16296941612949577652016-04-20T00:50:38.300-04:002016-04-20T00:50:38.300-04:00I still have to read this book and see this film v...I still have to read this book and see this film version..I know!
