CLASSICS FOR THE KIDS!
This week is "Children's Book Week!"
I should point out there's another in
November too. It may surprise you
to know it is the longest running
literacy initiative in the country
having been started in 1919! It's an
effort to get kids involved in reading
at schools, libraries, and at home
and encourages adults to partner with
the children by reading to and with
them. It's time to pull out the old
classics like the Little Red Caboose
and the Little Engine that Could. I
have a small collection of children's
books that I share with our grandkids.
I've alls written some kids stories
featuring a character I call Prince
Claude. A bumbling monarch who
goofs up everything he does and
makes a mess of things. Of course
my wife is convinced those stories
are actually my autobiography!
Hope you and your kids or
grandkids will do some reading
and that all your NEWS is good!
