I am part of a volunteering group called N2Books. It's the best way to volunteer when you travel a lot or you can't commit due to your schedule. Basically, an adult gets paired with a 3rd-5th grader during the school year; you read books together and then discuss via email. Andrew, my reading buddy, selected The Naked Mole-Rat Letters for us to read this month. As many of you know, James and I have had our fair share of rats this year. So I find it fitting that he picked this book. Thanks Andrew! As though I didn't know enough about your favorite animal!
