Neverneverland.

I got to read Merry her stories tonight. I picked The Gruffalo, the same copy I used to read to my kids. The pages are all creased, and ripped in places. Hour and hours, days' and weeks' worth of written pages read out loud to children over the past ten years. It never gets old, but I do.

The gift of time invested in children and literacy never gets old. And never should. If only more parents did this.

There once was a mouse in the deep dark wood.
The owl saw the mouse and the mouse looked good.
BEST BOOK EVER!

I'm so glad somebody else knows this one! Do your animals have voices? My snake sounds like Michael Caine.
