I have said many times on this blog how very much I love reading to my kids. It makes me feel close to them. It makes them feel close to me. It makes me feel like they are being nurtured. It's an overall happy feeling that I like. So as you can imagine, when I was looking around our local toy store recently and saw the classic book The Little Red Hen...I about had a heart attack. I absolutely and positively love this book. It's just the right length. Not too long, not too short and has a good moral. I snatched that little baby up as fast as I could and $4.95 later I was at home reading it to my own little hens. We have read it about 20 times since we bought it a few weeks ago, and just like most Golden Classics, it never grows old.
