One of the true joys of working with children is the moment of discovery. When that light bulb comes on and a new door is opened that leads to new experiences. One of those door opening abilities is reading. A young boy came to me so excited he was reading a book. He wanted to share every line and illustration. There is nothing like a good book to fill the minds of a young reader with the possibilities of adventure. There are so many classic children’s tales that we have grown to love, Old Yeller, If You Give A Mouse A Cookie, Where the Wild Things Are and so many more that you have read to your own children with fond memories. This morning’s book was a classic story of a young hero in the never ending battle of good vs evil. Clothed in nothing but his tidy whities Captain Underpants fights to free us from the grasp of such villains as killer toilets and lunchroom zombie nerds. God bless you Captain Underpants.
