Robert Louis Stevenson: The Travelling Mind
Interesting, stuffy, very self-satisfied. I was looking for research about reading, what Krashen calls "Free, Voluntary Reading." Didn't find that but I did find lively discussions about books and active reading. The author included an essay by Clifton Fadiman about active reading...something every student should be able to do. I remember having lively conversations with my texts...even calling Mr. Rochester in JANE EYRE A 'JERK'. I enjoyed the discussions of the books Katona believes we should all read, and LOVED the reading quotes! other than that this was a really light-weight...
