"The written word is all that stands between memory and oblivion. Without books as our anchors, we are cast adrift, neither teaching nor learning.

“Friends serve central functions for children that parents do not, and they play a critical role in shaping children's social skills and their sense of identity. . . . The difference between a child with close friendships and a child who wants to make friends but is unable to can be the difference between a child who is happy and a child who is distressed in one large area of life.”
