A Teaching Moment For Little Nora

Little Nora and Grandpa Bill sit on swings in Grandma’s garden. A hummingbird arrives to sample the brilliant flowers at this buffet. Grandpa Bill sees a teaching moment and asks little Nora with a smile if hummingbirds have beaks or bills. Little Nora has a teaching moment, says, “Grandpa, they have straws." Donal Mahoney
