I began a journey through literature, filled with joy in reading and sharing an author’s words of faith, hope, and love of God with children. This journey has led me to creating and sharing a list of books containing virtuous themes woven throughout the author’s words. Children are impressionable. They are influenced by what is read to them and what they read. Their world today is far more open to many things through TV, music, and the World Wide Web. Teachers experience this influence from the day a child arrives in Pre-Kindergarten. Parents are the first at helping a child on their journey of discovery. Parents and teachers can work together to offer children good literature as a counter balance to their modern day influences. The reading list provides parents and teachers suggestions of present-day authors who have created characters that learn and grow, demonstrating God’s virtues of faith, hope, and love and the human virtues of justice, courage, forgiveness, and service. These are characters we would like children to emulate. Sharing and offering suggestions of authors who create good characters can open meaningful discussions among parent, child, and teacher. Reading aloud and sharing books with children helps to bring the characters alive. Children can develop a deeper sense of values by hearing and reading the way a character struggles between good, evil, right, and wrong. Jesus, understanding the power of a good story, taught through parables. Parents and teachers can harness the power of the written word, guiding children to the best of the best in literature. The list is a starting point for parents, teachers, and children. It can be expanded as readers discover their own virtuous stories. Stories can also often move into other categories. The important thing is to read quality literature. Children become what they see and hear. I would like to dedicate the reading list to all the students who remember Tikki Tikki Tembo, The Five Chinese Brothers, The Giver, and many more books that I read aloud to them; Sister Mary Arthur Hoagland, IHM, for teaching and sharing so much of her knowledge about libraries and reading; and Sister Catherine Delores White, IHM, and Sister Edward William Quinn, IHM, for their support and belief in me. Thank you, also, to parents and teachers who will use the reading list to bring the awareness of virtue to all their children. Lastly, I am grateful to my husband and children for always being there for me and to my daughter, who raised her hand to begin my journey. “To love means loving the unlovable, to forgive means pardoning the unpardonable. Faith means believing the unbelievable. Hope means hoping when everything seems hopeless.” —G.K. Chesterton EARLY CHILDHOOD PRESCHOOL TO GRADE TWO | 1 faith 1 EARLY CHILDHOOD PRESCHOOL TO GRADE TWO | 3 “Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” —Hebrews 11.1 Angel in the Waters.

A Hat Girl’s Legacy When Marlene Crupi found Jason Downer’s top hat hidden under tree roots during the traditional “hat hunt” for Milwaukee Downer freshmen, she earned more than the distinction of being “First Hat Girl” for the Green Class of 1955. She was propelled into a leadership role that would last a lifetime. Milwaukee-Downer tradition calls for hat girls (each class had four) to exemplify the attributes of leadership in their academic and personal lives and to serve as class leaders. Marlene embraced this leadership role socially and academically. Professors such as Gladys Calbrick mentored her, while bolstering her self-confidence — providing momentum for her academic success at Downer and in graduate school. Marlene was delighted to be welcomed warmly into a supportive alumnae group who encouraged her service as an alumna. She responded by assuming a variety of volunteer roles, eventually serving as president of the Alumnae Association at the time of the consolidation in 1964.

  • The David Attenborough Effect
    The David Attenborough Effect As David Attenborough turned 92 this week, he has been in the news being celebrated for his incredible life. We wanted to discuss one element of that legacy which has been having a colossal effect on society’s views of sustainability and environmentalism within the UK recently. Since the airing of the recent series of ‘Blue Planet’ on the BBC. There has been a noticeable uplift in community awareness and engagement with plastic reduction and biodiversity protection. The format was simple, it was an hour-long show divided into two sections. The first 45-minutes showed the beauty of the blue planet with unrivalled production values letting people see inside this hidden world in such detail never seen before – it was engrossing and beautiful. The second part was a 15-minute segment at the end about how the people filmed it, how the crew accomplished the feats and the difficulties that stood between them. One particular clip that resonated with me was the footage of the mother Whale carrying her dead baby around days after it had passed away. The mother had been unknowingly consuming plastic, which had tainted her bloodstream and poisoned the calf who was feeding on her. Each episode had a moment like this that would grab people’s attention. The final episode was a call to action to protect the ocean and its inhabitants. It was incredibly beautiful, completely distressing and very effective. This dramatic display shook people from their apathy and got them to engage with the issue. Social media feeds lit up during and after the shows with trending topics like ‘beat plastic pollution’, ‘make a difference’ and ‘climate action’.
