I came up with an idea to challenge Elijah and I to both read more - rather than watch TV, text, play video games, etc... as well as maybe connect a little better. He hardly talks to me anymore. Most people tell me is because he is a 14 year old boy but as you all know we have always been very close. We are going to have our own mini book club where every 2 months we read a different book and when we are finished we will go to dinner, ice cream, coffee whatever and discuss the book.
I thought this would help increase brain power and knowledge as well as give us something to TALK about.
Our first category is a biography - he has his book but I need some recommendations. Got any??
The Steve Jobs one is supposed to be good -

Elijah probably takes all his cool electronics for granted; you can explain to him how much hard work and perseverance and innovation goes into it!
