Christmas Break!

Besides buying Bamboo Ridge Press books for your Christmas presents for friends and family members here and far away (far away is good, to give them the nostalgic, pining-for-Hawaiʻi moments), I thought of sharing a couple of other books with you: by Junot Diaz "The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao," by Elizabeth Strout, "Olive Kitteridge," by Bill Bryson, (forgot title) a dictionary about science for the science buffs, and "The Iconic House," if you like architecture. Please let me know if you like any of these.

Teachers, a must read is Romano’s "The Authentic Voice." It is timeless. How wonderful if we could teach in this way. (Big Sigh!)
