Simon and I have been reading such a good set of books... It's a 12 part series - How to Train Your Dragon. And now, just as the coronavirus worries were descending, we came to the end of the very last one.
I was in tears reading this aloud. Simon had to keep taking over, but he was crying too. So much seemed to reflect our own situation - the complicated tangle between opposing forces, the power for even the smallest player to make huge change, the inevitable shifts - good and bad - that sweep our world. We were weeping for lost period of the dragons (really lost?). And for the love between Hiccup and Toothless. And for all the good that can come from one true heart. And also our saddness that we were at the end of Book 12, and our time in Hiccup's world was over.
