eight It was my mother s idea She wanted me to make something of myself and decided I had better start young if I was to have any chance of keeping up with the competition With my load of magazines I headed toward Belleville Avenue The crowds were there There were two gas stations on the corner of Belleville and Union For several hours I made myself highly visible making sure everyone could see me and the heavy black letters on the bag that said THE SATURDAY EVENING POST When it was supper time I walked back home How many did you sell my boy my mother asked None Where did you go The corner of Belleville and Union Avenues What did you do Stood on the corner waiting for somebody to buy a Saturday Evening Post You just stood there Didn t sell a single one My God Russell Uncle Allen put in Well I ve decided to take the Post I handed him a copy and he paid me a nickel 五分镍币 It was the first nickel I earned Afterwards my mother taught me how to be a salesman I would have to ring doorbells address adults with self confidence and persuade them by saying that no one no matter how poor could afford to be without the Saturday Evening Post in the home One day I told my mother I d changed my mind I didn t want to make a success in the magazine business If you think you can change your mind like this she replied you ll become a good for nothing She insisted that As soon as school was over I should start ringing doorbells selling magazines Whenever I said no she would scold me My mother and I had fought this battle almost as long as I could remember My mother dissatisfied with my father s plain workman s life determined that I would not grow up like him and his people But never did she expect that forty years later such a successful journalist as me would go back to her husband s

Traditional fairytales are being abandoned by parents because they are too scary for their young children a study found Research revealed one in five parents has ditched old classics such as Snow White and the Seven Dwarves and Rapunzel in favour of more modern books One third of parents said their children have been left in tears after hearing the horrible details of Little Red Riding Hood And nearly half of mothers and fathers refuse to read Rumplestiltskin to their kids as the themes of the story are kidnapping and execution Similarly Goldilocks and the Three Bears was also a tale likely to be left on the book shelf as parents felt it forgives stealing The survey of 2 000 adults was conducted to mark the launch of the hit US drama GRIMM which starts tonight at 9pm on Watch and sees six episodes based on traditional fairytales The poll found a quarter of parents polled wouldn t consider reading a fairytale to their child until they had reached the age of five as they prompt too many awkward questions from their offspring Steve Hornsey General Manager of Watch said Bedtime stories are supposed to soothe children and send them off to sleep soundly But as we see in GRIMM fairytales can be dark and dramatic tales so it s understandable that parents worry about reading them to young children 8 As adults we can see the innocence in fairytales but a five year old with an over active imagination could take things too seriously Despite the dark nature of classic fairytales as we see in GRIMM good will triumph over evil and there is always a moral to the story The study also found two thirds of mums and dads try to avoid stories which might give their children nightmares However half of parents said traditional tales are more likely to have a strong moral message than a lot of modern kids books such as The Gruffalo The Hungary Caterpillar and the Mr Men books 56 Why56 Why don tdon t somesome parentsparents wantwant toto readread RumplestiltskinRumplestiltskin
