WOW! I didnt know that.
I spent 30 years working in Social Services and ALL the forms used were written at a 6th grade level...
Incidentally, I've read 31 of the listed classics but there was a time in my life when we had no TV and I WASN'T into quilting or sewing so I had a book in my hand all the time. My favorite books are autobiographies, mysteries and animals. My most recent books are "The Shack", "HEAVEN" and a darling book about the real life of an abandoned frozen footed Orange kitten in the book depository at a library. The book is "Dewey" and it's WONDERFUL." There are many more that I've read and re-read and loved.
