I much prefer working with kids whose life could be completely upended by a reading of a book over a weekend. You give them a book to read - they go home and come back a changed person. And that is so much more interesting and exciting.

我更喜欢和孩子们一起工作,他们的生活可能被周末读一本书彻底颠覆。你给他们一本书读,他们回家后就变成了另一个人。这是非常有趣和令人兴奋的。
