Awakenings

   Pick a book of at least 123 pages, go to the 123 page, recite three lines-

       "The goat stared unblinking through the reading session. The Lady had more or less told him the story of Dick Whittington up to where the cat was. Willy didn't care about reading, but an adventure story he'd stand around for. If you don't read, you don't get many adventure stories"

 Well, that was more than three! But I love those lines anyway! They are from the book we've been reading aloud with my 7, 11, and 13 year olds entitled- Whittington by Alan Armstrong. All three kids have fought for a spot on the couch next to me each night we've been reading this book. I believe it will be one of those special books that we won't even want to come to the end of, and will most likely read more than once or twice!
