Learning to read at 14 years old
Best outcome of a birthday present ever: We were out running errands yesterday and Charlie asked: “Mom, can I stay in the car and read?” YAY! Most amazing words ever! [He will be 14 this week and is just learning to really read on his own! So thankful!] aflink: https://amzn.to/3NWbRen

Here are the three we bought him online:
- Ms. Marvel Volume 1: No Normal
- Ms. Marvel: Something New
- Marvel: Stretched Thin (Original Graphic Novel)
We were a little confused about the sequence for the books (based on what was available on Amazon) so we went to our favorite comic book store (Things From Another World – near our home – in Milwaukie, Oregon) and Patrick (the sales person there) helped us figure out which ones we needed in order to read them in order. Thank you Patrick! You made our day. Patrick told us that a lot of them are out of print (since they were last printed in 2014) but now they are reissuing them with the new t.v. show, so some from this series are becoming available again now. We got the first three sets in the series (I through #16, there are 5 or 6 separate stories in each book) and asked Patrick to call us as soon as he has any of the others in!

What a heartwarming post! I’ve been reading your posts since I learned about lead in my sweet Corelle dishes. I put them all away and bought lead-free dishes on Amazon. I am trusting they are lead-free as it states on the box. They are from the FAMHH Amazon store. I have the bowls and appetizer dishes. I love them and wanted to share this lead free company with you.
