My work here is done

From the time my godchildren were little, I've sent them children's books about Dickens, annotated A Christmas Carol for them, and so forth. It appears to have paid off. Their mother reports that my oldest godchild, age 9, picked out and bought David Copperfield at the used bookstore!

My friends, I am a happy godmother.

I don't think I've read it, myself. I think that's amazing for 9 years old! Like you said, even if she just reads bits here and there, that's great!
