I’m having no luck commenting on Huff Post today – not sure why. I just love your thoughtful article – thank you!
I wrote a quick post last week on how I get my 8 year old into picture books, despite her best efforts to only read chapter books. http://imaginationsoup.net/2010/10/a-reading-diet-that-includes-picture-books/
Cheers,
