Book Review: The Reading Promise

Alice Ozma and her father decided to see if they could start a reading streak . When she was in fourth grade, her father said he wanted to challenge himself to see if he could read out loud to her for 100 straight nights. After the challenge was met they would have a celebration. Post challenge they decided to continue and they did until the day she began her journey in college. 
This book gave me such a warm feeling as this is what my husband and I did with our children when they were growing up. We even read some of the same books as Alice's father did. We also read the Oz books by L. Frank Baum, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll and some of Shakespeare's play. Unlike the father, we did not continue with this as long but it did help to build unbreakable bonds as I am sure this did with Alice and her father. 
I was given this book by Grand Central in exchange for an honest review.

Book Review: William Daniels: There I Go Again: How I Came to Be Mr. Feeny, John Adams, Dr. Craig, KITT, and Many Others

William Daniels is one of my favorite actors. I was thrilled when I saw that this book was being offered by NetGalley and University of Nebraska Press for my honest review.

To read his story from all of the shows that I have seen in him was fantastic. This book was wonderfully written and I loved each page. Thank you for allowing me to become better acquainted with you Mr. Daniels.

Also thank you for NetGalley and University of Nebraska Press for allowing me to receive this book in exchange for my honest review.

This book may be found on Amazon HERE! and on Barnes and Noble HERE!

I received a free electronic copy of this autobiography from Netgalley, Bill Daniels, and University of Nebraska Press, Potomac Books, in exchange for an honest review. Thank you all, for sharing your work with me.

William Daniels is one of those actors you 'know' as soon as you see their face, you can do the whole filmography by heart, but the name.... Not fair, is it, but he played an important roll in the lives of us baby boomers. The respect is there, for the memories and life lessons learned, even if the name escapes us. This memoir brought back lots of those memories, and lots of laughs, as well. I managed to skip TV most of the 80's and 90's so I will be catching up on Dr. Craig soon if Netflix carries it. I do remember KITT though I saw few of them, as well. My memories go to films, The Closer and Grey's Anatomy - and he was in a bunch of them. Thank you, KITT - Dr. Craig - John Adams, for the memories....
