Passing on the Tradition
Nov. 18th, 2009 09:36 amLast night I read Spud a bedtime story.
This is not remarkable, in and of itself. He gets a story every night unless he has goofed off or otherwise caused himself to be late for bed and we don't have time. What makes last night fun and noteworthy is that we read "The White Seal" from The Jungle Book. So far, we have read that one, and "Rikki-Tikki Tavi," which happen to be my favorite stories from JB. We've also read "How the Rhinoceros Got His Skin" and "The Elephant's Child" from Just So Stories.
Not that I and the boy's grandpa like Kipling or anything.
