reading and the owl mobile

today we enjoyed reading the story the land of right up and down, by eva-lis wuroio. it's one of our favorite stories, and chanda received it as one of her birthday gifts.

we discovered it a few years ago at the donnell library. lately, many of these beautiful old books are being relegated for in house use only. we can no longer check them out. this, of course, makes the story impossible to be discovered anew by other children browsing the shelves, and makes me wonder what other books we are missing that have also been archived.

while reading the story, we also worked on gael's birthday gift: an owl mobile.

we only thought of the idea this morning, and so needed to work diligently to finish it in time for the party this evening.
