Hi Dawn. I'm concerned at your lack of comments! Are you doing the rounds, or have you given up? Just wondering. It is such hard work to get comments.
As always (I read the posts I've missed) you have good points. I think it's important for our characters to have values and for these to be challenged through events in the story.

Denise - Thanks. I struggled the past few days with commenting and also posting so the two with 0 were also posted far later in the day than normal. Though oddly, while this blog slowed down in comments, the other (that had 0 comments on posts in the beginning) has picked up comments on every post lately. It's kinda interesting how that worked out. Thanks for commenting.
Thank you so much for your kind comments on my blog - and I do heartily recommend Up!
By the way - in my middle school and high school (it was one establishment) all the pupils were in "houses" (like in Harry Potter)... My house was "Unicorn", which meant the satin lining of our burgundy, ankle-length regulatory cloaks was a fabulous primrose yellow. I've loved unicorns since then - many children's books have unicorns too, so I've read some with my girls.
Magic27 - That sounds like fun, Wish I could have been in a Unicorn house. I will have to look for unicorn books when I have kids. Thanks for the comment.
