They HAVE to take tests over the books and earn points from that and it's counted in her grade. She now says it's not as fun to read because she HAS to...:o( It's funny...it's had the opposite affect on her that they wanted. She's still a reader though and I'm sure she'll regain her love for it when it is no longer made into a chore.Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17480939903983271555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36124766.post-8618602764232831312011-10-04T03:06:32.733-04:002011-10-04T03:06:32.733-04:00what a special young lady you have.what a special young lady you have.jewels in the garden +: )https://www.blogger.com/profile/16377388416395335685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36124766.post-28260702663348086952011-10-03T02:28:45.579-04:002011-10-03T02:28:45.579-04:00I love this.

Emma is a lucky girl to have learned early in her life about the gift of reading. Books can be great companions.<br />My kids always had a set time for bed<br />but they could read in bed as long as<br />they wanted.
