Ivi Reads

Another re-discovery from December 1995, when Ivi was 2 years, 11 months old, and having reached the stage of being sufficiently adept at reading that she would no longer tolerate being read to.  (And it was she, just a few years later, who would discover that “happyhogrot” could be formed as an anagram to the term “photography”.)

UPDATE June 2015: Ivi goes on to become a magna cum laude graduate
 with a degree in English.
