卷毛头学英文

早晨丫头在床上翻看一本唐诗方面的小书，看到骆宾王的《易水送别》后发现新大陆似地大声告诉我：“妈妈，骆宾王是荆柯的好朋友！” “是吗？ ”

丫头回家时开始学big bad wolf说let me in, let me in了。

Diary of a Wimpy Kid终于到手了，喜不自禁。认识她是five years ago, 当时Diary of a Wimpy Kid放在网上被我发现了，一见钟情，立马给作者写了封email, 我现在保存了Mr. Jeff Kinney的9封回信。 一年前发现儿童教育论坛也要归功于Diary of a Wimpy Kid, 因为是在Google搜索时发现唐古拉山妈妈的贴子并进一步发现儿童教育论坛的。

Hi Adele!
Thanks so much for the note! Your email really made my day!
I'm so glad to hear that an adult is reading and enjoying the book. I really wrote the book for adults,  so I'm always happy to hear that homr in the book works for an older crowd. I am 33 years old, with a two-year-old of my own!

One day, I hope to have a Chinese edition of this book. That would be great! Thanks so much for your encouragement.

Your English seems great to me! Feel free to write with any questions about the expressions in the book! It would be interesting to me to hear what translates well, and what doesn't.

It's so cool to get a letter from China!! Thanks again!!

Jeff

在看Magic Box时看到pole beans, Google了一下，好像就是我们这里常吃的四季豆：

昨晚终于学完了RAZ Level A的8个SWF，这个级别的难点在于我要求丫头把Written by and Illustrated by后面的人名都复读出来，而这些人名有些我也是第一次接触，such as Ty Allison, Signe Nordin.

今天把Level A 的Baby Animals打出来了，最后一个foal连我都不认识, let alone my daughter.

foal---a young horse; especially : a horse that is less than one year old


This word reminds me one of the many movies I've downloaded from this website---The Yearling.


yearling---an animal (such as a horse) that is between one and two years old, 如此看来yearling是哥哥或姐姐了。


从Level A开始有SWF试题了，非常喜欢，但要等到家里有电脑后才能给丫头用。
