Breakfasts with Dad
Regarding the June 12 Home Forum essay, 鈥淏reakfasts that nourished my dreams鈥�: This was an appropriate story for Father鈥檚 Day weekend. The author鈥檚 evocation of leisurely spending time at the breakfast table jogs personal memories for me, especially as I note younger generations skipping breakfast or running out with an energy bar.聽
And the singing: My father would sing 鈥淶ip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah鈥� or 鈥淛immy Crack Corn,鈥� and it set a cheerful tone for the day ahead.

Muslim coverage
Regarding the June 23 Monitor Daily article 鈥淩amadan? There鈥檚 an app for that鈥�: I so appreciate the way the Monitor covers stories about the Muslim community, their culture, and beliefs. The more people learn to understand Muslims, the less opportunity there will be for ignorance, hatred, and prejudice.

鈥楽uburbia鈥檚 new face鈥� cover story
Regarding the June 5 cover story, 鈥淪uburbia鈥檚 new face鈥�: This was an excellent article with deep research and outstanding photos.聽
This article made me sign up for future 海角大神 Science Monitor material. The article was sent to me by a friend who long ago lived in Pearland, Texas.

Thoughtful investigation
Regarding the June 6 Monitor Daily story 鈥淲hy the internet remains an ISIS training ground鈥�: This is an excellent story! These are the nuanced topics 鈥� the gray areas 鈥� that deserve thoughtful investigation. Thank you and keep it up.
