When Grandma Read To Me

I loved going over to Grandma’s not just because there was so much to eat and see but I loved how she always has a book out and how she read to me. I remember being so excited…sometimes she’d sit me on her knee And I remember how I used to smile…when Grandma read to me We’ve traveled around the world…and I learned fact and fantasy… without ever leaving her house…when Grandma read to me. We might visit a castle…or sail in a ship across the sea or climb the highest mountain…when Grandma read to me I’ve watched a hungry caterpillar eat…learned how the Lorax speaks for the trees and how a spider and a pig can be good friends…when Grandma read to me. I learned how a cat can wear a hat…while a mad hatter likes to drink tea I learned about a little prince from another world…when Grandma read to me… I learned all about unicorns…and how to be the best princess I can be all from the pages of the books…my Grandma read to me… As I grew up we read less and less…but I think I’m the person I came to be because I went to Grandmas house…because she read to me. Grandma doesn’t see as good as she used to… Like me, I imagine, she loves remembering how we were…. now I see the excitement in her smile every time I read to her.
