And also ones which pitch to the lowest common denominator and assume we do not know the importance (or simple pleasure) of reading with our kids! As soon as I start being lectured my hackles go up. ...

The only weather that belongs in Mordor is sunshine, because it's boring unless you are on holiday. And too much snow, which is just a nuisance.
