[Reading-hall-of-fame] Re: [EXT]Re: Shirley's Video

[Heather Bell]

Kia ora tatou - greetings from New Zealand

Yetta, you have every reason to be proud of your daughter Wendy and her
daughter Shirley - what great readers being created.  Would that every
parent and every teacher support learning for young children in the same
way!  I am currently reading a book *A Conversation with My Country*, by
Alan Duff, author of *Once Were Warriors*, and the instigator of the superb
Duffy Books in Homes programme.  Alan is a Maori who is not afraid to
challenge, to give his views of the importance of children being read to,
to being loved and nurtured and treated with respect, to be given a love of
learning and schooling, and to suggest ways that we could move forward to
reduce child poverty and violence - a truly remarkable man who speaks with
heart and head.  When I watched Wendy in action with Shirley, Alan's
comments interrupted the viewing in my mind, so had to watch the video
again, and again.

Thank you for sharing such an important adventure - reminds me also of
Peter Johnson's new book *Engaging Literate Minds* - same critically
important ideas.  Thank goodness we have  people in USA, UK, Australia, NZ
- the ones I know about - who advance these actions and reflections.

Nga mihi nui - and take care.
Heather aka Hx
