That Tony Robinson show was great wasn't it?
Copied the link for the Stanford lecture series. That is something my son would be interested in!
Thanks for your comment. It is one thing when I tell my daughter she is a good artist, but I think it is more meaningful for our kids when others take the time to say it too!
Peace and Laughter,
Cristina
