“A Classic is a book that has never finished saying what it has to say.”--Italo Calvino. We are two moms that love the classics and we believe they are relevant and still have so much to still say to us today–perhaps even more than ever! We want to invite you to read along with us (or maybe just watch the movie) and hope that you will find our discussions fun and accessible and that you will find that there is so much to learn from and love about these transcendent books!
