RE: Adventure is Here Where You Read! 📚
This is unrelated to the more important messages you are currently creating, but I thought I might mention a couple of things related to books.
I recently heard about a study that looked at things that were predictors of success. Why do people go on to higher education and career success? You might think that it is genetics or access to better schools. They found the top predictor was the number of books found in a person's home.
A second bit of trivial. It is almost impossible to find books fundamental to Western society's growth - especially if they are not contemporary. Libraries can only hold so many books. You may be familiar with this site, but if not, I encourage you to explore this site: https://archive.org/. Once you register on the site, you have free access to borrow books. It also includes movies and audio.
It is a really interesting study, especially I was surprised by its result. I can understand why I am still studying😄 Thank you very much for this site advice. Actually, I didn't know it. It will be useful for me 🤗
Some of the media you need to "borrow". A good example of this that is also representative of Canada is "Never Cry Wolf". A distant relative wrote it of mine. You can borrow it for an hour at a time. You do so by logging into the site. It doesn't cost anything; it is like borrowing from a library.
When I was a child, I collected Classic Illustrated comics. My sister was four years younger and collected Classic Illustrated Junior comics.
If you know of some children who are in the process of learning to read English (or adults who want to become familiar with English literature by looking at the pictures), they can be found on Archive as well:
There is a library of different types of movies. Here is a classic comedy from 1936
Wow, you have a writer relative, it must make you feel good. Because of this, I searched about Farley Mowat. Also, I learned that he was an environmentalist. Actually, I didn't know him but he is famous so I wanna read his book to meet him. This archive service is quite a nice system for accessing. Thank you I find it beneficial 😊👌
My mother, Betty Warrilow, is a published writer as well. Her areas were in genealogy and history.
