All the world is a stage and a story. Count Down the Avenue, A Rainbow Fell Out of the Sky, Monarch Arise! Math Town and children's play Seafood Veranda take readers to the inner world of a child's imagination. Some of my fondest memories are sitting on the plaid couch in our living room turning the pages as mom, dad, babysitter and big sister animated the tales of Dr. Seuss, Madeline, as well as Frog and Toad. Literacy opened the door to so many adventures! Stories. An endless well of entertainment.
