A slight change to our book list

Ponytails, Crayons and I recently started reading The Adventures of Don Quixote, translated by J.M. Cohen and abridged by Olive Jones.

It started out all right--but a couple of chapters into it, I suddenly had to skip a whole section that was very very unsuitable for young maidens, and that jumped us right into a part about the nasty physical consequences of drinking homemade healing potions. Coming so soon after everyone's bout with a stomach virus, that was a bit more than we wanted to stomach.

We're going to start a new read-aloud on Monday.
