  Asthma Mom — Authority: 122
  Ever checked out this list of asthma triggers? Some of them make my own kid flare, some are common triggers, and others are not so well-known. I threw the page together over a year ago with a little help from readers and their experiences, but now let’s see if we can add to it. The more extensive that list is, the ...

• Tuesdays Are Your Turn – Weird Thanksgiving Requests

  
  Asthma Mom — Authority: 122
  Remember Type A Marnie and her neurotic Thanksgiving assignment letter? I found an even better one the other day on Margaret and Helen. This one’s not crazy like Marnie’s – instead, it pretty much nails all the annoying family stuff a holiday dinner can bring. Here’s an excerpt: Cloe. I am begging you ...

• "Thanks For Getting The Second Book In A Series"

  
  Original Content — Authority: 128
  I rather liked the first volume of Jellaby by Kean Soo . Well, except for the part about the book not having an ending, of course. But I try to be open-minded about the whole serial thing. I do understand that once the serial is completed, a reader can go through every volume and have a complete reading experience. ...

  Original Content — Authority: 128
  It is Cybil season, and while I am not cybilizing, myself, I am fondly recalling days when I was. Thus, when I stumbled upon Bloodhound: Beka Cooper, Book Two by Tamora Pierce , I jumped right on it because I liked the first book in the series, Terrier , which was nominated for a Cybil...oh, I dont know. Back the ...

  Several variations of this question have popped up all over the comments. Since we’ve all got different answers, let’s leave ‘em here, in one place: After recovering from the swine flu, how long did you/your child keep coughing?

  Heres Paul Fry on Wolfgang Iser , from the fourth lecture of his Yale course in literary theory (online in its entirety here ; thanks to Mike Johnduff for the link): "One text is potentially capable of several different realizations, and no reading can ever exhaust the full potential, for each individual reader ...

• A Sweet Natured Little Devil

  
  Original Content — Authority: 128
  I have to say that if I had a gun pointed to my head and was told to choose a book from any book award list, Id choose something from the Printz . Ive had a lot more luck with finding enjoyable reads from those winners and honor books than with any other award. Repossessed by A.M. Jenkins was a Printz Honor ...

• Tuesdays are Your Turn – Diagnosis Stories

  
  Asthma Mom — Authority: 122
  One of the few changes left in the site redesign won’t show up until this weekend, probably. It’s a minor addition, but I’ve been working on a *My Story* tab for up top, a summary of the early years with AG, the accompanying lung drama, and what it took to get her health under control. In the meantime, I want ...

• Are Formulas Important For Some Reason?

  
  Original Content — Authority: 128
  You may have noticed that Im on a little graphic novel kick this fall. Thats why I picked up Amulet Book One: The Stonekeeper by Kazu Kibuishi . What really struck me about this book is how incredibly formulaic it is. The word "rigidly" might apply. In a prelude, a child sees her parent killed. At the real story ...
