"I think we ought to read only the kind of books that wound and stab us. If the book we are reading doesn't wake us up with a blow on the head, what are we reading it for? ...we need the books that affect us like a disaster, that grieve us deeply, like the death of someone we loved more than ourselves, like being banished into forests far from everyone, like a suicide. A book must be the axe for the frozen sea inside us."

Reactions to Tree of Codes
I don't think anyone has posted this yet and I think Ms. Schieffelin mentioned this video the other day, so I thought I'd share.
I definitely think we should show this to the school, since they aren't reading Tree of Codes in their English classes. I think it will make everyone curious and possibly inspire people to pick it up on their own.
