Dovey Mae remembers when she ventured into the deep dark forest. Grandma senses little Dovey’s fear, & she makes up a fantastical story, bringing nature to life as they “wait for the sun.” The forest turns magical and an enthralling adventure as they see magnificence in darkness.
Music and reading go hand in hand too! Music complements reading by aiding in relaxation and focus, understanding language and the rhythm of conversation, connecting poetry to song and vice versa.
