Reading Olympics

Tonight Dominic was part of two teams from his school attending Reading Olympics. It was held in a local high school. The school has tons of parking, great playing fields and a huge auditorium - but both of the classrooms we were in had no windows. Nice.

Dominic's team did great though. They earned a blue ribbon - the highest award - for scoring more than 50 points in their three games. The highlight for me was Dominic correctly answering a question on a book I know for a fact he has not read. He knew the answer because when I reproached him for not having read it in the car on the way to the event, he asked me what happened in it and I told him a few details. Bearing in mind it's about 30 years since I read it, I think can be allowed to be pretty pleased that Dominic and I scored that point tonight.

When we came home we asked Max the question and he knew the answer because his Granny read this book to him. Name the book Mum....
