Happy American Thanksgiving!

I just wanted to wish all of my American friends a very Happy Thanksgiving, and give you a taste of what our day was. We've had lots of snow fall over the past 3 days, and the trees are laden with heaviness. Quite a beautiful site, and impetus for those individuals itching to begin their Christmas shopping!

Enjoy!

Field of Dreams

This past weekend I travelled to Kirksville, MO by way of Kansas City to present an eReadingPro workshop. It was a two and a half hour drive NE from Kansas City, during which time I saw three beautiful deer, two eagles (I think that's what they were) and this amazing entrance gate. I thought it was so cool! It led me to pondering throughout the duration of the drive, to what each person's dreams actually were that entered through that gate.

MY dream is that all children learn to read BEFORE they begin school. Wouldn't that be amazing? The teachers would have it made in the shade, the parents would be happy, and the children could use this skill to flourish!

What would your field of dreams consist of?

Great Read!

I recently presented a workshop in Knoxville, TN. While I was in the airport in Toronto awaiting my outbound flight, I came across a book that screamed out for me to read. The book was called "Someone Knows My Name: A Novel". I purchased it, and began reading when I settled into the flight. Needless to say, between meals, a workshop, and excercising, I completed my 500-page read on my return flight. I could not put it down! I have to say this is one of the best books I’ve ever read – and I LOVE to read! The prose is magnificent! I could not skip a word, a sentence or any minute aspect, as I was so enthralled with every ounce of the story! I especially love that it is fiction, but based on so many relevant historical facts that many Canadians (and Americans alike) are ignorant to.
If you are looking for the book in the US, it can be found under a different title: Someone Knows My Name.
I highly recommend this book!

It took a while to find a new printer.
Then it took a while for him to get price quotes.
Then it took a while to edit the Instructional Guide.
Then it took a while for the parts to all come in.

The first NEW eReadingPro kit was shipped out last Friday - but we made sure we snapped a few pics first :-). We really hope that you enjoy the new look!

eReadingPro donates eBooks in Nigeria!

eReadingPro has donated a set of eBooks to The mission of Our Lady of Guadalupe (OLG) Health Foundation & Autism Centre in Nigeria.

Our Lady of Guadalupe Health Foundation/Autism Center was founded in June, 2006 by Dr (Mrs.) Doris Izuwah and is currently the first foundation that offers biomedical intervention for children in the Autistic Spectrum Disorders (ASD) in Nigeria. OLG Foundation also runs the Defeat Autism In Nigeria project on whose platform they also organized the 1st World Autism Awareness Day celebration in Abuja Nigeria.
As some of you may know, I have a great love for Africa, and a deep desire to assist the children there who are in such unfortunate situations. eReadingPro will be working together with the founders of OLG to improve the lives of children in Nigeria with Autism by providing our easy to follow reading program in the form of eBooks.
A workshop in Nigeria is being planned for 2009!
