When I was a kid my best friend a few houses down and I would take to the woods in the wee hours waiting for the sun to come up so we could find some birds.

These March evenings I am straining my ears to hear the spring peepers as they call and signal that spring is around the corner. But there is another local frog who often plays second fiddle to the notorious peepers as a harbinger of spring.

My friends and I went pretty happily through Bridge Street and Spaulding schools where, seated in rows of wooden desks, we learned to read. We started with our letters and moved on to those antiquated Dick and Jane books in reading groups with equally antiquated names such as bluebirds, cardinals and sparrows.

Our time spent with books was happy and stress free until we arrived in middle school to be introduced to the wonders of speed- reading.
