Food for Kids

This was a delightful read. Nesbit has a way of narrating a story for children, rather like Lewis' Narnian chronicles in ease of speaking to little ones. The story emphasizes giving to others when you are pinched yourself, how to carry on when things aren't ideal, being strong for others, and what boys need from a father figure. Very healthy, edifying, and enjoyable.
