I like to think that someday we will all read again. And I mean more than Dr. Suess and the Oregonian headlines, puh-leese. But until that miraculous day, I can dream, right? Or at least create a virtual pile to delight over, to have at the waiting for those mornings I am blessedly awake before the rest of the living beings in my house and the laundry is already done. Maybe you, too, have a virtual pile? And while my growing stack is not limited to books on activism around the current events and public policies that affect U.S. families, Activistas is.
So, here is the perfect place to create just such a virtual reading list. We're calling it If We Had Time to Read. Check it out on the left side of Activistas. We hope you'll add to it and tell us about any of the books you've read from the list. No need for a full-on, official review or anything, just your thoughts. Did it motivate you? Seem impossible? Off the mark? If we share our own reading experiences here on Activistas, we'll all feel like we're keeping up a little, getting something from these authors when, truth be told, we have no time to read! Reading without reading. Works for me!
And don't forget to check Literary Mama for real reviews by real mamas of a whole host of books. Our goal here is to limit it to books specifically about parent activism and the issues we are working to change. And, hopefully, to invite you to share your thoughts about these books without the pressure of writing a full book review.
