Week 2 Reading Overview

In my plan, you'll find that there are a lot of fairy tales because I love a good fantasy story.  The units I'm probably most excited to read are LibriVox and Crane because I'm also a fan of the Brothers Grimm darker versions of fairy tales.  I'm also a little excited to read Nursery Rhymes because I'm eager to see what all is included and how many there are that I already know.
