Nursery Rhyme of the Day

Little Miss Muffet
Sat on her Tuffet
Eating her Curds and Whey
Along came a Spider
Who sat down beside her
And frightened Miss Muffet away

Books for Boys

Are you finding that your boy does not like to read?  You are not alone.  Boys do not naturally take to reading like girls.  However, once you find the right book for them, they are usually hooked.  Tomorrow night at 7 p.m. I will be talking about boys and books.  The majority of the presentation will center on book recommendations to kick start your boy into reading.  For more information, call the children's desk or email me at mailto:kconroy@cotesaintluc.org.
