Welcome!

Welcome to RE 3240! I am eager to get to know you as we explore children's literature together. I look forward to watching this blog fill and spill over with your thoughts and words.

Give Me a Book

Give me a book and long tall grass,
There will I look as the hours pass.
To other places I can see;
To other faces strange to me.

In black and white they fill my head
With men and women~ vanished, dead~
Of hope and fear, of wish and need.

The world stands still.
I, breathless, read.
And in their history I see
The untold mystery of me.
