   I’m a retired school teacher, and that was my daily goal for my students. To make each student’s day a better day and to make them feel like they succeeded in helping others too. The older the students that I was teaching the harder it was. Years later. I had a few of my primary students thank me for that.

   Oops, forgot to mention I am a retired teacher and librarian. That’s why I was reading to classes of kiddos.

   When I would read Green Eggs and Ham the kids would have it memorized. To stir them up just for fun I started adlibbing the entire book. The kids got all agitated and kept correcting me. So I I would start the book again and read it correctly.

   The kids would get even more upset and tell me to read it my way, not not the old way! Hilarious!

   Instead of “Do you like green eggs and ham? Do you like them, Sam I Am? Do you like them in a house? Do you like them with a mouse.”

   I would adlib “Do you like purple eggs and spam? Do you like them George I Am? Do you like them in a car? Do you like them with a rat?”

   I had such fun and so did they. It was especially fun when their teachers would come back from the break I had given them. They were shocked! Lots of giggling kids! The teachers would join in the laughter.

   This is a wonderful classic! Sit back and learn about cats. Cats have a wonderful sense of humor, very twisted…in a good way.

   Wait until the red tennis shoes and “Love to eat them mousies.Mousies what I love to eat. Bite they little tails off. Nibble on they tiny feet!”

   Love the toy giraffe stuck in the train’s smoke stack! So true when it comes to kids.
