>>>Hi, I'm actually about 3/4 done and will probably be finished by tomorrow sometime. The thing that impressed me about the book was the character of Mrs. Frisby. She is like an ideal mother figure. She knows how to communicate and withhold information (as necessary) without lying to prevent putting her worries and fears into her children. <<<
Very wonderful observation Mitch. She isn't deceptive in the devious sense but more caring about which persons she imparts what information to.
I'm in the same boat.....not quite finished and my copy is overdue at the library....I'm hiding out and hopefully will be able to breathe and write by Tuesday.
Thanks for chiming in.
