I'll see if I can get a copy at the library.
I already intend to limit Simon's exposure to TV and this is one of the main reasons - it is such a battle to keep the disease of consumerism at bay. I do not want my son growing up thinking that happiness is the quantity of presents under the tree or the brand of clothes he wears. I'm hoping we manage to achieve something a little deeper. sheesh.

Thanks for that! I feel the same way.

Will hunt this out at our local library. We are also hoping to achieve something deeper with Alyssa than a tally of gifts under a tree or labels on clothes...
