Even boring ones give interesting insights into the thinking of a scientist, or an artist or a whatever you like.

There is a HUGE variation in approaches to origami and styles of models which becomes apparent as you flip through a lot of books. This project was begun, and hopefully will be finished this summer, because of a elementary school student's assumption that art teachers do not read books. Appalled,

This project was begun, and hopefully will be finished this summer, because of a elementary school student's assumption that art teachers do not read books. Appalled, aghast at his statement and apprehensive about the future of children who might think that reading is only for people who need to read because of their job (as he thought our librarian did) I am determined to introduce this child to every book in my library (almost)! I do not expect anyone to ever listen to me for more then a few minutes here and there, but the I think the number of videos and the extrapolated number of books within them will impress kids that I am "walking the walk" when I tell them reading is a gift, and a tool, that can help make their lives better.
Young people need to know what makes different sorts of adults tick in order to realize how important life choices are in creating the person they see. This collection is simply videos of me sharing my interests.
