I have to throw out a book

[heidi]

It's from Disney's Adventure Collection and the sticker on front says, "Lead your child to reading success!"

The first story is a Peter Pan one.

The second to last line on the first page says, "He was searching for the Darling's house."

I can't read anymore, and I won't allow this in my house because it's just such a basic, stupid error. And I won't give it away, for that would spread ignorance. I'm shredding the page and throwing the rest into recycling.

Ew.

You're clearly not an english major (And no offense meant there, honestly)

Hahah, no, definitely not. I'm engineering. (:
I swear I can actually do better than that, I realized as soon as I posted that that given the nature of the conversation, that was probably a bad idea. I actually do write for fun and even have a grammar handbook handy that I go through when I edit my work, but... When I'm just talking and typing, I tend to use my own special e-grammar. It has maybe one too many semicolons and commas. Sorry.
