Unlocking the Code

To learn to read is to light a fire; every syllable that is spelled out is a spark."
Victor Hugo, Les Miserables


The sparks are flying! Lilly is learning to read by sounding out words and writing them in her Primary Learning Log!
A new world is opening up to her! As we drive by countless political signs, my sweet girl tries her best to read them! Talk about fuel for the fire! How fun!



"Oh, magic hour, when a child first knows she can read printed words!"
— A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, 1943
