Library Notes

When You Can Read

When you can read, 

then you can go from Kalamazoo to Idaho

Or read directions that explain

just how to build a model plane

Or bake a cake or cook a stew

The words will tell you what to do!

When you can read, then you can play

a brand new game the proper way

Or get a letter from a friend

and read it…to the very end. ~Bobbi Katz
