must be 60 years since I read that book, a few years before that my 1st grade teacher read it to us with so much enthusiasm, she had all of us kids sitting on the edge of our seats.
Do teachers still do story time for their students? I'll have to remember to ask my youngest daughter if she still reads stories to her students after more than 20 years of teaching.
