Reading "Have a little Faith" by Mitch Albom..


Rabbi asked the child what he thought about his parents. He said, "They weren't perfect, but...they don't need improvement". The Rabbi told him that his answer was very insightful and that that his answer show that he is willing to accept people aS they are. Nobody is perfect. Not even Mom and Dad. That's okay. The Rabbi then smiled and put his hand on the child's head. he recites a blessing "May the Lord cause his countenance to shine upon you.."

To Kill a Mockingbird

Plans to remove "To Kill a Mockingbird" from the school curriculum in Ontario.


Reasons:
- Some parents complained about the language in the book.
- Some suggested that books being used about African American people should be written by black people.

I don't think it should be removed. Its a great book.

Suggestions for replacements.
- "The book of negroes" by Lawrence Hill
- "Child of Dandelions" by Shehnaz Nanji
- "The Bite of the Mango" by Mariatu Kamara
