“But there’s where things have to start–with a dream. Of course, if you just go on dreaming, then it stays a dream, and becomes stale and dead. But first to dream and then to do–isn’t that the way to make a dream come true?”
from Meindert de Jong’s The Wheel on the School

I loved reading that book aloud. It was so funny in places – he has a wonderful way of saying things that are so easy for a child to grasp.
We really need to read this sometime. Lovely.
