More From Robert Fulghum

I have very happy memories of fairy tales. my mother used to take me to the library in toronto to check out the fairy tales. and she was an actress, so she used to act out for me the different characters in all these fairy tales.
Mother Memories Character
[fairy tales] are like a journey to the woods and the many ways you can get lost. some people say it's not a good idea to read fairy tales to anyone under the age of eight because they are brutal and raw. when i was a kid i often felt that kids's books were speaking down to me, but i never felt that way about fairy tales. they are bloody and scary, but so is life.
Book Kids Journey
I think almost everybody enjoyed fairy tales when they were young, tales of witches and ogres and monsters and dragons and so forth. you get a little bit older, you can't read fairy tales any more.
Thinking Dragons Littles
People have always told tales. long before humanity learned to write and gradually became literate, everybody told tales to everybody else and everybody listened to everybody else's tales. before long it became clear that some of the still illiterate storytellers told more and better tales than others, that is, they could make more people believe their lies.
Lying Believe Writing
I wrote this story for you, but when i began it i had not realized that girls grow quicker than books. as a result you are already too old for fairy tales, and by the time it is printed and bound you will be older still. but some day you will be old enough to start reading fairy tales again. you can then take it down from some upper shelf, dust it, and tell me what you think of it. i shall probably be too deaf to hear, and too old to understand a word you say, but i shall still be your affectionate godfather, c. s. lewis.
Girl Book Reading
If you want to make your children brilliant, tell them fairy tales. if you want to make them more brilliant, tell them more fairy tales.

Not every child has an equal talent or an equal ability or equal motivation, but they should have the equal right to develop their talent and their ability and their motivation, to make something of themselves.
Children Motivation Should Have
As a child i felt myself to be alone, and i am still, because i know things and must hint at things which others apparently know nothing of, and for the most part do not want to know.
Inspirational Children Childhood
It was a grand old house, the ayemenem house, but aloof-looking. as though it had little to do with the people who lived in it. like an old man with rheumy eyes watching children play, seeing only transience in their shrill elation and their whole-hearted commitment to life.
Children Commitment Eye
No child in africa, and in fact anywhere in the world, should be denied education.
