Welcome to our secret book society, John

7yo John has devoured 35 Boxcar Children books in the last few weeks and now he's started on his first "real" book: Lewis's The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. He's covered five chapters since an hour before bedtime tonight, and he's taking full advantage of our rule that allows kids to stay up as long as they want as long as they're reading.

• Seven-year-old John: "Did you watch Star Trek The Original Series on computers or TV?"
  
• Old, old Daddy: "On TV - we didn't have computers back then."
