If only I had a photographic memory, could speed read and had a library sized Webster's at hand.

Your illustrations should be in schools to help students to read. Start simple with basic readers like once upon a time “see spot run.” There’s a lacuna out there that needs to be filled.

I'm loving how you share these gems, Grant! Fun and easy to understand for any curious learner! Thanks! I may use 'thaumaturgy' to describe what caregivers do each day: science, magic, with some telepathy.. ;-)

Thaumaturge! I love the blur of science, magic, and religion, all methods of how we explore and understand everything that exists. Or not. If we could only not separate them, perhaps we could more clearly see what is. Loved this. Thank you.

dear grant,

love your art as always! and grateful to learn this:

"Literally, thaumaturge means 'wonderworker.' It’s an ancient word from when the fields of science, magic, and religion were blurred."

thank you for YOUR thaumaturgy here!

much love
