The Joy Of Being A Parent Volunteer

It's a well-known fact that some aspiring readers (a.k.a. first-graders in my son's class) have trouble differentiating between the letters "d" and "b".

Well, that is simply asking too much. There are lots of way ditches can be incorporated into these mini-tales. The upside, however, is that when you're the parent who is helping these wee cherubs navigate such difficulties of the English language, you have a front-row seat to the highly entertaining story they are creating without even realizing it. Let's just say that...oh, how about I leave it to your imagination?
