Mystery
Cue Righteous Brothers:
"I had the time of my life, and I owe it all to you, yeah...
The elementary school called me some months ago and said they had a mystery reader every month to read to the children, and they wanted to "go out with a bang" in May. They had called the local arts association and asked was there a local author who wrote children's books, and they recommended me! They wanted to purchase my book, "The Crow and The Wind" to give to the children, who would read the book as I read it aloud.
Many of you know I have been bedridden for 5 weeks (hence the lack of blogging), but I promised I'd be there if I had to go on a stretcher. It wasn't that dramatic, the wheel chair did fine, and they got me a really good chair to read in on stage.
Husband sat with me, as he is the illustrator of the book.
640 children filled the auditorium. They quieted down, I talked a few minutes, and when I began to read, there was total silence except the turning of 640 pages in tandem as I turned mine. I get chills typing this.
It was wonderful. Thank you to the elementary school for this privilege. I'll never, ever forget it.
