One of my all-time favorite poets to read aloud to children.
Hi. When I post a new story, I use google image to find an image that comes closest to depicting the story. In this case you are obviously right. There was not copyright notice on the image and my use is short term and non-commercial. Thank you for pointing this out. Best, Bob

6. They will be able to converse in Klingon about the really big questions like the nature of time, or the meaning of life.
7. They will be ready, willing and able to serve when the Lord Supreme High Commander of the Intergalactic Federation of Planets and Planetoids names her successor.
4. They will better be able to ponder the imponderables like; “why do my shoe laces always come untied.”
5. They will be able to impress their teachers by using phrases and titles like; “flipperty-ibbity-jibbet”, or SO LONG, AND THANKS FOR ALL THE FISH.
Seven good reasons why your children think you should read to them.
1. They will be reassured that you will be home in the evenings.
2. They will be guaranteed a trip to the bookstore or library with you each week.
3. They will always have something to talk about with you.
