A few days ago I was talking to my boys after school and they were both talking about the kids in their classes that are….weird ‘unique’. They described kids I knew from my youth: the ones who seem to always have a runny nose, the ones who ask a million and a half questions just to impress the teacher and even a whole group of kids that stay IN during recess to work on their homework and to discuss Dungeons and Dragons (yup, it is still out there). So I tried to take the opportunity to talk about the importance of being kind ‘to everyone’. That is the right thing to do blah, blah, blah. And somewhere in the back of mind was this book cover-which I first saw on my friend Chris’s site. And although I laughed HYSTERICALLY at it-it must have stuck with me, because I ACTUALLY repeated the title words to my boys. To which Jack replied “Mom you get dorkier every day.” And all I could do is agree with him.
(Photo note: not only is this guy AWESOME he has the most racially diverse group of friends found on any book jacket anywhere. And look at the adoration they have for him. He is now a cult leader. Wow. Awesome. Amen)
