A Second Look

Cinderella got palaced Bambi was Fawned 101 Dalmatians were painted A Little Mermaid was spawned Donald Duck got Daisy'd Goofy went crazy Captain Hook was gatored Mysterious Island cratered Snow White was dwarfed A Beauty was Beasted The Three Little Pigs On a big bad wolf feasted Be they movies, cartoons or books All these stories deserve a second look Reason enough for you to Read to your children; give back what you took

It was all great. But loved this line especially. "Captain Hook was gatored"

Very well done, Gershon! I am a believer in reading to kids. Not only that! If you and your partner can read to each other? Zowie! That's exceptionally special. My husband and I read the entire Dr. Zhivago did so. Plus poetry, Russian novels, even the "Saturday Review." different than watching Netflix, eh? Panagiota

What a fantabulous idea, Panagiota… Early on in my (2nd) marriage, my wife and I used to read 'Our Town' together, out loud, once a year, and a couple of chapters from some other books, but I'm afraid those days are just long gone. (Please don't ask)… I'm so happy for you that you can (still?!) do so. Once again, thank you for a great insight and idea. :) gw
