Story Time

The motorcycle is racing away fast.
See, the mouse is saying “pbpbbbb!”
He’s hiding under the grandfather clock.

One-hundred seventy six pages of text
shared in whispers. She leans in
and tells the dog another story.

That is so cute! I must say the thought of 176 pages blew my mind a little bit!!

You can cover 176 pages awfully fast when you're making up the story as you go, flipping through a book without actually being able to read it. :)

I just wish I had a camera on me. Of course, if I went to get one, the dog would have followed me out of Big's room and ruined the moment. :)

The way Ralph's story was always meant to be told. :)

I will never forget the librarian at my school reading that book to us. Now I've got this great new memory, too. Thanks for stopping by, Melissa!
