With me as the reader I have learned to be taught by the actions of the characters in all books I read‚ whether they are Harry Potter or Chronicles of Narnia or even Water for Elephants. “History shall teach those who come after us‚ and hopefully they will learn from our mistakes before they make them themselves.” These words were once spoken by Napoleon to his dear wife
