ABSTRACT The Texas Reading Club is designed to encourage youth to read for pleasure and to promote library usage.The theme for 2001 is "To the Library and Beyond!" and emphasizes ways in which a visit to the library leads young minds to explore world geography and cultures, nature and the environment, college and careers, computers, and great literature. A handbook is created each year to aid in planning and programming, and the handbook, along with posters, reading logs, bookmarks, and certificates are offered by the Texas State Library to encourage participation and support of this program. Included in this document are: the Texas Reading Club Proclamation (June 1,2001); biographical information on this year's illustrator, and acceptable use of artwork policy; past themes and artists, as well as information on the 2003 theme/artist; words to the 2001 Texas Reading Club theme song; descriptions of the following available materials, with ordering information: program manual; posters and mini-posters; bookmarks; two reading logs; and certificates. Links to main pages and other related materials for past years are provided at the end of the document. (AEF)

The Magic Carpet Ride Reader's Theater Script By Gayle A. Travis

Characters: Narrator 1 Narrator 2 Wise Grandfather Genie Small Boy 1 - Jose Small Boy 2 Alec Small Girl 1Stephanie

Narrator 1: Three friends went exploring in Alec's grandfather's old attic.

Jose: It is too bad it is still raining outside, I wanted to play. (whines)

Stephanie: It would just be muddy, it's been raining for three days now.

Alec: Grandfather said we could explore the attic. He says there are a lot of old things here that no one has bothered with in a long time.

Stephanie: Achoo! It certainly is dusty up here.

Jose: Look, an old trunk full of pictures of REALLY old people.

Alec: They must be some of my ancestors!

Narrator 1: They looked around for almost an hour until they found the most fascinating object of all.

Stephanie: Come over here and look at this beautiful antique blue bottle!

Narrator 2: The boys gathered around Stephanie to see the discovery.

Alec: I think there is something inside it. Can we open it?

Jose: Why don't you rub it and see if a genie pops out! (sarcastically)

Alec: Ha, Ha! Don't you know that only happens in fairy tales? Let's take it to my grandfather and ask him about it.

30 Narrator 2: They all went down the creaking stairs until they found Alec's grandfather reading an old dusty book by the window.

Grandfather: Oh, I see you have found the Great Bottle!

Jose: Is it a magic bottle?

Alec: What's in it?

Stephanie: Can we open it?

Grandfather: The bottle is magic...in a way.

Alec: How does it work?

Grandfather: You must treat it very gently, you must use it very wisely, and you must realize that with it comes great responsibility.

Stephanie: It must really be something special.

Jose: So What is inside the bottle?

Grandfather: The key to worlds of the imagination and beyond. You can go places you never dreamed possible.

Narrator 2: Alec's grandfather waved them aside and went back to reading his book.

Alec: Come on, he won't tell us any more now.

Narrator 1: The children went back to the attic and began to study the bottle carefully.

Jose: Let me have it. I want to see if we can figure out how to open it.

Alec: Try rubbing it.

Stephanie: I thought that would only happen in fairy tales, besides your grandfather didn't say anything about a genie.

Jose: It is my turn to see.

Stephanie: Jose, don't grab the bottle, I saw it first.

Narrator 1: Stephanie and Alec struggle with the bottle. Without realizing it they rubbed the outside of the bottle three times.

ALL: POOF!

Alec: What was that?

Genie: I am the genie from the land of Icanreaa you have brought me from my bottle to take you on a tour of my homeland.

Stephanie: Don't we get three wishes?

Alec: He's not a leprechaun.

Narrator 1: The genie began to pull a thick woven rug from the bottle.

Jose: How did you get it to fit in there?

Alec: It is magic, don't you remember?

Genie: All aboard, we are off to the land of Icanread.

Narrator 1: All the children climbed aboard the carpet and held on to the edge. The genie sat cross-legged in the front and began to chant.

Genie: Magic Carpet, will you please. Fly us higher than the trees. Take us, take us, if you can. And put us down in Story land. Turn, turn, turn.

Stephanie: No, don't turn, I'll get carpet sick!

Narrator 2: The genie ignored Stephanie and suddenly the room whirled around them, and with a blur of color and light the attic room disappeared.

Jose: Look, there's an island down below. It's Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn!

Genie: No time to stop, we're coming to the prairie.

Stephanie: It's Laura and Pa, and even baby Carrie and the cabin in the big woods.

Narrator 2: They came to a cave next and Alec was the first to recognize the two young boys examining a wall with a magnifying glass.

Alec: It's the Hardy boys. I wonder if they found an important clue?

Genie: Time to go now!

ALL: Magic Carpet, will you please Fly us higher than the trees Take us, take us, if you can And put us down in Story land. Turn, turn, turn.

Narrator 2: The scene quickly changed and they all stared in amazement as a boy turned into a leopard. 3239 Jose: It is one of the Animorphsthis is way cool.

Stephanie: Wait, I see Claudia and Kristy from the Babysitters Club all sitting in Stacy's room talking. I wonder who has the new boyfriend.

Alec: I can't believe this, over there is a gigantic spider web, and a PIG!

Jose: It's Charlotte!

Stephanie: Can't we stop and look closer?

Genie: You can later, there is so much to see.

ALL: Magic Carpet, will you please Fly us higher than the trees - Take us, take us, if you can And put us down in Story land. Turn, turn, turn.

Narrator 2: The trip seemed to go on forever until they finally landed back in the dusty old attic with a flop and a thump.

Alec: Is that all?

Jose: We want to go back!

Stephanie: I want to see a unicorn!

Narrator 2: The genie just shook his head.

Genie: Not now, but you can go back to my land any time you want. You just need a ticket.

Jose: Please let us have a ticket.

ALL: Yes, a ticket!

Genie: You already have one.

Narrator 2: And the genie and his magic carpet disappeared back into the blue bottle as quickly as they had arrived.

ALL: POOF!

Alec: Where did he go?

Jose: I want my ticket. There are a lot of places you guys mentioned that I've never seen before.

Stephanie: Your grandfather was right, it is magic. Narrator 1: They all looked at each other in amazement and cried,

ALL: Grandfather!

Narrator 2: And began running down the stairs. Stephanie trailed behind carrying the bottle carefully.

Alec: Grandfather, you will never guess where we have been.

Narrator 1: His grandfather looked up from his dusty book and said...

Grandfather: Yes, I know where you have been because Icanread.

Stephanie: What?

Jose: Icanread. I get itthe land of I-Can-Read!

Grandfather: Yes I can, and so can you.

Alec: But the genie said we needed a ticket to go back!

Grandfather: And what do you think is in that bottle?

Narrator 1: They all stared at the bottle in Stephanie's hands.

Stephanie: A genie and a rug, I think.

Narrator 1: Alec's grandfather took the bottle from her and gently popped the top.

Grandfather: That and much, much more.

Narrator 1: He then pulled a small card from the bottle and showed it to them.

Jose: It is just a card.

Stephanie: Is it our ticket?

Alec: How did you get that out of there?

Grandfather: Magic, or maybe not. It is the ticket to the land of Icanread that all of you can use. It is a library card!

Stephanie: We can go to the library and get books to read about all those things we saw.

Grandfather: Remember, you must treat it very gently, you must use it very wisely, andyou must realize that with it comes great responsibility.

Alec: Let's go!

ALL: To the Library and Beyond! 3441. Tips for Presenting Reader's Theater

What is Reader's Theater? It is often defined by what is not. There is no memorizing, acting, props, costumes, or sets. Children use their voices, facial expressions, and hand gestures to interpret their characters.

Here are some tips for a smooth performance: 1. Arrange the readers in a row or semicircle facing the audience. They may all stand or they may all sit. If the readers stand, they may take a step forward while reading and step back when finished. If they are sitting, they may stand while reading and sit when finished.

2. If there are two narrators, put one on each end of the stage.

3. Readers may hold their scripts or the scripts may be placed on music stands.

4. A child may be assigned to read more than one role. It is best if the two characters do not have consecutive lines.

5. Review words that are difficult to pronounce and define words that the readers may not understand.

6. Allow time for the players to read the script silently. Provide pens and markers for them to highlight their lines and make "stage" notes, such as "gruff voice." If time permits, let them read the script aloud before the performance. It is best if the readers know their lines well enough to look at the audience at least half the time.

7. Ask one player to introduce the title and author of the story. Instruct all players to freeze until the audience is quiet and ready to listen.

8. When the reading is finished, the readers freeze for a long moment and then they all bow together.

35 4 2 Woodland Adventure Reader's Theater Script by Gayle A. Travis

Characters: Narrator 1 Narrator 2 Bear Squirrel Skunk Owl Snake

Narrator 1: In the bright green woods there is a big oak library tree.

Narrator 2: It is here that the animals sing and talk and treat each other as friends.

Narrator 1: The library tree is where all the animals go and look up information about anything they want to know.

Narrator 2: The wise old owl is the librarian and knows all about the woods.

Narrator 1: Whenever one of the animals has a question they go to him.

Narrator 2: One day Bear, Squirrel, and Skunk came to the big oak tree.

Narrator 1: They were all scampering and whining and chattering excitedly.

Squirrel: Owl, owl, are you there?

Skunk: We need to talk to you!

Owl: What do you need, my friends?

Bear: We realized that it has been several days since any of us have seen Snake!

Squirrel: We are very worried about him. I talked to him several days ago and he was wondering what was beyond the path that leads from this tree.

Owl: That is easy...

Skunk: No, no, it isn't easy at all! What if he has been eaten or caught or...

Bear: Now Skunk, we know no other ANIMAL would have harmed Snake. It is just the path...

Squirrel: We don't know where it goes. 43 36 Owl: It goes...

Skunk: No, I don't want to talk about it. It is too horrible to imagine. We need help!

Owl: The books here in the library tree will tell you all about what is on the path beyond the library tree.

Narrator 1: The animals scurried to the lower branch which held the books. Bear grabbed the nearest book.

Narrator 2: It was a good thing he had just washed the honey off his paws.

Bear: This book shows the path and all the good things there are to eat along the way.

Narrator 1: Skunk picked up another book.

Skunk: This book is a map so if any of us were to go on the path we would not lose our way.

Squirrel: But where is Snake?

Bear: Snake likes to lay beside cool ponds. Is there one on the map?

Owl: Snake read all these books before he left.

Skunk: Here is a pond, just beyond the woods before you get to a field of tall weeds.

Squirrel: Snake loves to lie in tall weeds.

Bear: Is there anything to eat among weeds?

Owl: I do have a book of edible plants.

Skunk: I hope they don't smell.

Squirrel: I hope Snake is OK.

Owl: I have been trying to say that there are a lot of wonderful places...

Narrator 1: Snake slithered around the tree and asked:

Snake: What are you all doing? Are you going to go exploring also?

Skunk: Snake! You are all right!

Squirrel: Where have you been?

Bear: We have been worried sick about you!

Snake: I went out of the woods down the path. It was great! Didn't Owl tell you?

44 37 Skunk: Owl knew where you were? We have been reading these books about the path beyond the library tree.

Squirrel: It sounds wonderful.

Owl: I tried to tell them.

Squirrel: You just pointed at the books.

Snake: Didn't you believe the books?

Skunk: You mean it is true?

Bear: That there really are great things beyond the woods, down the path?

Snake: Of course, there are good things to eat. There are wonderful places to lie in the sun.

Squirrel: If we had only known!

Bear: Owl, did you know all this information was here in the library tree?

Owl: Yes, I have been trying to tell you.

Skunk: You could have saved us a lot of time if you had just told us all these books had so many wonderful things in them.

Bear: We wouldn't have been so worried about what was beyond the library tree!

Narrator 2: Owl rolled his eyes back and sighed. Owl: That is what I have been trying to tell you. There are great things in the library tree- and beyond! Henny Penny An Puppet Play Based Upon a Tale from England Adapted by Julie B. Cowan, (c)2000

Characters: Henny Penny Ducky Lucky Goosey Loosey Doggy Woggy Catty Patty Foxy Loxy Librarian Narrator

Puppets: The face mask puppets available at Jan Brett's website at www.janbrett.com for The Mitten, The Hat, The Town Mouse And The Country Mouse, or The Gingerbread Baby may be used. Download and print them on a color printer on cardstock weight paper. Paste onto old folders for durability and stiffness.

Props: Library books, name sign for librarian, glasses, hat, or other "costume" items for her/him.

Setting: The Library !

Play Begins

Narrator: Once upon a time, a couple of days ago, back when animals acted like people, there lived a white hen named Henny Penny. She was not very wise, but she loved to read books. Every Wednesday Miss Penny went to the library to browse, read, and check out books to take home for the upcoming week. Of course her favorite stories were "The Little Red Hen," "Little Tuppen," and other books about her own kind. She especially liked to look at the pictures in the books and find other hens like herself! One afternoon while sitting on the floor by a bookshelf, Henny Penny was startled when WHACK!a book from the shelf fell on the top of her head!

Henny Penny: Oh me, oh my! I think the sky must be falling! The blue sky must be falling! I must go and tell the librarian!

Narrator: Henny Penny walked around and walked around until she found Catty Patty looking at some magazines.

Catty Patty: Hello, Henny Penny. You look frightened! Where are you going in sucha hurry?

Henny Penny: The sky is falling-falling down! I must find some help in this town! We don't have time to chat! I am very sure of that!

46 39 Catty Patty: May I come with you?

Henny Penny: Certainly!

Narrator: So they walked around and they walked around until they found Goosey Loosey reading the newspaper.

Goosey Loosey: Greetings! Henny Penny and Catty Patty. You look worried. Where are you going in such a hurry?

Henny Penny, Catty Patty: (in unison.) The sky is falling-falling down! We must find some help in this town! We don't have time to chat! We are sure of that!

Goosey Loosey: May I come with you?

Henny Penny, Catty Patty: (in unison) Certainly!

Narrator: So they walked around and they walked around until they came upon Ducky Lucky reading the the book, Make Way For Ducklings.

Ducky Lucky: Hello Henny Penny, Catty Patty, and Goosey Loosey. Whatever is the matter? Where are you going in such a hurry?

Henny Penny, Catty Patty, Goosey Loosey: (in unison) The sky is falling-falling down! We must find some help in this town! We don't have time to chat! We are sure of that!

Ducky Lucky: Oh! May I go with you?

Henny Penny, Catty Patty, and Goosey Loosey: (in unison) Certainly!

Narrator: So they walked around and they walked around until they spotted Doggy Woggy getting a drink at the water fountain.

Doggy Woggy: Hello Henny Penny, Catty Patty, Goosey Loosey, and Ducky Lucky! What is the alarm? Where are ydu going in such a hurry?

Henny Penny, Catty Patty, Goosey Loosey, Ducky Lucky: (in unison) The sky is falling- falling down! We must find some help in this town! We don't have time to chat! We are sure of that!

Doggy Woggy: May I go with you?

Henny Penny, Catty Patty, Goosey Loosey, Ducky Lucky: (in unison) Certainly!

Narrator: So they walked around and they walked around until they saw Foxy Loxy with his pointed nose in a book.

Foxy Loxy: What's up? You all look like the sky is falling down!BEST COPY AVAILABLE All of the animals: (in unison) The sky IS falling- falling 47! We must find the librarian in 40 All of the animals: (in unison) The sky IS falling-falling down! We must find the librarian in this town! If we don't find her, there will be a disaster! Help us look faster, faster!

Foxy Loxy: Don't worry! Henny Penny, you must be a little dizzy! That was not a piece of the sky that fell on your head, it was a book from the top shelf that toppled down! Follow me! I know a shortcut. I will take you to the librarian and she will help us put that book back on the bookshelf.

Narrator: So Henny Penny, Catty Patty, Goosey Loosey, Ducky Lucky, and Doggy Woggy all followed Foxy Loxy to the circulation desk where they found Ms./Mr. ,the librarian.

Librarian: Thank you, thank you, thank you for taking care of the books in the library! Let's go shelve this book and find some good books for all of you to check out! Narrator: And that is just what they did! My story has come to an end. Let out the rooster and lock up the hen.

Notes: This play is appropriate for a mixed age group. Older children can help younger children portray their parts! The repetitive refrain is easy for the group to recite in unison. Very little "action" or "movement" is required. The characters can travel around in a relatively small area. Stage the children with animal character masks before the story begins. They can sit/stand quietly and listen to the play until it is time for their part. This is a "follow the leader" strategy which allows for the first characters introduced in the play (older children) to help the younger children

418 Take Flight and Read! An Original Puppet Play by Julie Cowan (c)2000

Puppets: Child (boy or girl), Dog

Puppets: This play is written for hand puppets. You do not needa stage, although if you prefer one, it needs to have a playboard for props. If you do not use a stage, a table is necessary for displaying books.

Setting: Child's room

Play Begins: The child is engrossed in reading a book. Move the puppet's head back and forth. The body can be slightly bent forward, leaning over a book standing slightlyopen on the table. The puppeteer can sit or kneel behind the table. Another option is for thepuppeteer to sit in chair in front of the audience and lay the book in her lap. The table is nearby for otherprops. The puppeteer manipulates both puppets, one on each hand. Dog enters and approaches child, but child continues to read.

Dog: BOW-WOW

Dog: (dog barks LOUDER and tugs on child's arm/body) BOW-WOW BOW-WOW.

Dog: (child turns page and dog taps child) BOW-WOW-WOW-WOW-WOW! Hey, whatare you doing? I thought we were going to play!

Child: (turns around and asks grumpily) OUCH! What do you want?

Dog: (incredulously) Don't you know who I am? Don't you know what I want???

Child: Of course, I know you! You're my best pal, Rover! (or other name)

Dog: If you know who I am, then you MUST know what I want!

Child: Well, I don't, so you better tell me or scram!

Dog: I want to do what dogs always do! Let's play outside in thegrass. I'll chase you first! We can run with the wind!

Child: And fly high!

Dog: (surprised) What did you say? 9FST COPY AVAILAIRE Child: Fly high....in a book! Dog: Are you crazy? I want to have a good time. 49 42 Dog: Are you crazy? I want to have a good time. Child: I'm not crazy. I'm telling you it is fun to soar to new places with a book!

Dog: How can I do that?

Child: It's easy! Go to the library. Check out some good books, and start reading! Explore the universe!

Dog: I don't know...I've never been in a rocket ship. I might get scared.

Child: Don't worry. You won't be blasting off in a rocket.

Dog: You mean I have to go in a plane? BOW-WOW, flying makes me nervous!

Child: Silly Rover, you don't go in a plane either. You go in your imagination!

Dog: What is an imagination? I don't think I have one of those in my doghouse.

Child: Imagination means pretending. You make pictures in your mind from the words in the book. You can BE the characters in a book and GO where they go!

Dog: BOW-WOW! Reading sounds like a very exciting trip!

Child: Your imagination gets lost in the story until you are so wrapped up in the book that you are flying high and soaring to new places. Sometimes you are not aware of anything else! You don't hear the doorbell ring, or the phone ring, or your mother calling you!

Dog: Your own dog can bark at you and you don't even know it! Right?

Child: Right!

Dog: You must have been exploring the universe and flying high when I came and barked at you! BOW-WOW!!

Child: I was! I was (Fill in blank with a specific character and action from the book used as a prop.)

Dog: BOW-WOW! I want to fly high and soar to new places too!!

Child: Then why don't you read that book over there? (points to book on the table) Who knows? You could travel in a spaceship to another planet!

Dog: (goes behind book) BOY-oBOY-oBOY!!! I can't wait to get there!

Child: (continues reading own book, then turns around and calls to dog) Rover? Rover? Isn't that a good book9 How do you like the book, Rover? (no answer as Rover appears to be "lost" in space)

Child: (louder) DON"T YOU KNOW IT IS GOOD MANNERS TO ANSWER PEOPLE

Q WHEN THEY TALK TO YOU??!!

Child: (to audience) Rover likes his book. He DID travel to new places by using his imagination! Why don't you try it? Good-Bye! (both puppets exit)

(The puppeteer can "walk" the puppets off stage, or put her arms behind her back andremove the puppets from her hands.)

Prissy Krissy: That's where I want to go.

Dad: (entering stage right) I found the books on mummies?

Prissy Krissy: Uh, thanks Dad. I decided not be an archeologist after all,we are looking for space books now.

Mom: I don't think we have made it to Jupiter yet, honey.

Dad: Jupiter?

Mom: Krissy, do you have any books on how to become an astronaut?

Prissy Krissy: No, I'll go ask the librarian. (exits stage)

Prissy Krissy: (entering stage) Look! I found the books on clothes and make up!

Mom: What do they have to do with being an astronaut?

Mom: A model!

Prissy Krissy: Wouldn't I look great walking up and down the runway? (flounces back and forth across the stage).

Mom: Krissy, hurry now. We have to get back in time to take the dogto the groomers.

Prissy Krissy: Can't I cut Flu-Flu's hair myself? Wait! That'sa great idea! (exit stage)

Mom: (calls to her off stage) No! You cut her hair whenyou were two and it didn't turn out so great!

Dad: (enters stage) Where is Dr. Krissy?

Mom: Looking for dog books I think.

Dad: A veterinarian, well at least it is close this time.

Mom: Not quite.

Prissy Krissy: They only had a couple on dog grooming but Igot them both. We can go now.

48 55 The Owl and the Painted Bird / La lechuzay el Aar() pintado A Story Adapted by Angel Vigil Originally Published in The Eagle on the Cactus, Traditional Stories from Mexico. Reprinted with permission of the author and Libraries Unlimited, the publisher.

This story explains why the owl is nocturnal and cries "Pi-coo." Includeas much Spanish as is comfortable as you tell this story. Here are some words and phrases youmay wish to use.

Spanish/English Vocabulary: A long time agohace mucho tiempo Animals - los animales Birdslos pajaros Birdel pajaro Featherslas plumas One feather una pluma Eagleel aguila The most beautifulla mas bella Owlla lechuza Wise old owlla vieja y sabia lechuza Painted birdpajaro pintado All the colors of the rainbow- todos los colores del arco iris The skyel cielo During the nightpor la noche

A long time ago / Hace mucho tiempo, during the time when the worldwas new, animals / los animales across the Earth were busy developing their natures and appearances. The birds / los pajaros of the world were especially active at this time. Each bird / cada pajaro was learning the songs that would be theirown and that would identify that particular bird to the other animals. They were also trying on feathers / las plumas that would mark each type of bird as distinct and beautiful. One bird, Pi-coo, was having an especially difficult time. She could not makeup her mind about which feathers / plumas she should wear. The more she tried on, themore confused she became. Soon, almost all of the feathers / las plumas were spoken for, and she was left with almost nothing tocover her naked body. Because she had no feathers, she was very ashamed and refused tocome out of her nest. The other birds felt sorry for her. They gathered together and talked about a way they could help Pi- coo. The eagle / el figuila, who spoke first, said, "Why don't we each give her one feather / una pluma? We all have so many. It wouldn't be missed and would really help her." The other birds / los otros pajaros were not so sure about the idea, but not one bird couldcome up with another plan. The birds / los pajaros worried that if they each gave a feather to Pi-coo, she might become the most beautiful of all the birds / la mas bella de las ayes.

49 56 Finally, the wise old owl / la sabia lechuza spoke up. He said, "Why don't we each just loan her a feather / una pluma? Then she will be covered. As soon as her own feathers grow in, then she will return our feathers. I myself will be responsible for the return of the feathers / las plumas." The other birds / los otros Maros agreed to this plan only because of the guarantee by the wise old owl / la vieja y sabia lechuza to return their feathers. Soon all the birds had given Pi-coo a feather / una pluma. She gathered all of the feathers / todas las plumas and carefully arranged them on her naked body. As soon as she saw her reflection in the still waters of the river, she realized that she was the most beautiful of all the birds / la mas bella de las ayes. She looked like a painted bird / un pajaro pintado, with all the colors of the rainbow / todos los colores del arco iris shining on her magnificent body. Realizing that the other birds would be jealous and would never allow her to keep their feathers, she immediately flew high into the sky / el ciolo, never to return. It was not long before the birds / los pajaros realized that Pi-coo was not returning. Incensed, they searched for the wise old owl / la vieja y sabia lechuza, but he was nowhere to be found. They could not stand the idea that Pi-coo was now the most beautiful of the birds / la mas bella de las ayes and demanded that the wise old owl / la vieja y sabia lechuza keep his word and return the donated feathers. The wise old owl / la vieja y sabia lechuza knew how angry the other birds were. So he hid in the trees during the day and came out only at night / por la noche when he knew the other birds were sleeping. During the night / por la noche, he would quietly fly around and call out for Pi-coo, "Pi-coo. Pi- coo." And that is why, to this day, the owl / la lechuza is a nocturnal bird, only coming out at night to fly through the air with its plaintive, searching cry of "Pi-coo, Pi-coo." The Princess Who Wanted to Travel to the Moon A Story Adapted by Dorothy McMahon

Once, long ago, in a far-off kingdom, there lived a very powerful king who hada beautiful daughter. He loved her dearly and he granted her every wish. Needless tosay, she was a very spoiled princess. More than anything else in the world, the princess loved to travel. She had traveled far and wide throughout her father's kingdom and even to far away neighboring kingdoms. One night, when the princess and her father were having supper, the princess began discussing where she might travel next. The king suggested several choices to her, butnone of them seemed to please the princess. As they continued to talk, the princess looked out the palace window.Now, on that particular night there happened to be a beautiful full moon. When the princesssaw it, she cried, "Oh, Father, I know where I should like to travel next. I want to travel to the moon!" "To the moon!" exclaimed her father. "Why the moon is straightup and it is extremely far away. How could you possibly ever reach it?" "Oh Father, you can find a way for me to reach it. You have promisedme that I could travel any- where I desired. And, I want to travel to the moon. Even if I could just touch it, I would besatisfied. If you don't allow me to travel to the moon, I shall simply wither away and die." When the king heard this, he knew he could never let sucha fate as that happen to his beloved daughter. He quickly summoned his royal adviser and said, "The princess wishesto travel to the moon or at least to touch it. You must come up with a plan to see that her wish is granted." When the royal adviser heard this request, he turned pale for he knew the princess alwaysgot what she wantedit was her way or else. "But your highness," said the bewildered royal adviser, "there isno method of transportation made that could transport the princess to the moon." "I am well aware of that," stormed the king. "That's why I haveyou in my court as my royal adviser to advise me in matters such as this. I demand that you find a way to make this happen." "But, Sire, you are asking an impossibility," stammered the royal adviser. "Nothing is impossible!" said the king. "You must helpme to grant my daughter's wish or else. And be quick about it. You know how impatient she is!" The royal adviser knew there was no use arguing with the king. He must think ofa plan and think of one quickly. Suddenly, he had an idea and called for the royal carpenter. He told him of the king's order and suggested that the royal carpenter and his men builda tower that could reach to the moon. The royal carpenter agreed that perhaps such a tower could be built. He said he would begin to design it immedi- ately. While the royal carpenter worked diligently to design the tower, the royal adviser quickly surveyed all of the available wood and trees in the kingdom. The royal carpenter drew design afterdesign, but finally concluded it was not possible to build a tower of wood that would reachto the moon. He informed the royal adviser of his findings. When the two of them told the king this, he flew intoa rage and ordered them to think of a solution by the next morning or else. Frantically, the royal adviser and the royal carpenter tried to solve the problem. Theywent to the royal library. There the royal advisor suddenly had an idea. Why not builda tower of books stacked one on top of the other? There were millions of books in the kingdom. Everyone there loved to read books. When he suggested this idea to the royal carpenter, he agreed that the idea just might work. The next morning they presented this idea the king and hewas delighted. He ordered that messen- gers be sent to every village and town in the kingdom to announce to everyone to gather together all of their books and to bring them to the palace at once. The king's subjects were not at all pleased; however, noone in the land dared refuse the king's

51 request. Soon the palace yard was piled high with books, books of all kinds poetry books, fiction books, picture books and non-fiction books. Day and night the royal adviser and the royal carpenter and his helpers worked, stacking the books one on top of another. Soon all of the books were stacked high into the sky. Hundreds of them could not even be seen. The king surveyed the tower of books and he was pleased. "The time has come for the princess to climb to the moon," he said, "and I have decided to go with her." When the princess heard this, she was delighted that her father would be accompanying her. Now, she wouldn't have to carry her own luggage. Remember, she was quite spoiled. For the occasion, the princess wore her most beautiful gown. She waved goodbye to onlookers and began to climb up that huge tower of books. Her father followed right behind her. The two of them climbed up, up, and up. At last, the princess stood swaying on the top book. At this time, she realized she needed just a few more inches to be able to hop right up onto the moon. Calling down to her father she said, "I need one more book. Have them bring one up to me." Hearing this, the king yelled down to his royal adviser, "Send up one more book." When the royal adviser and the royal carpenter heard the king's request, they stared at one another. They knew that there was not one single book left in the entire kingdom. They had used every one. What were they to do? "Where is the book?" cried the king impatiently. "We are waiting.". The royal adviser found the courage to say, "Your Highness, there are no more books. We have used every one. There is not one book left in the entire kingdom." "Nonsense!" cried the king. "Just take one book out from the bottom and bring it up to me immedi- ately. " "Take out the, the bottom book, Sire?" stammered the royal adviser. "Yes! Take out the bottom book, you nitwit," yelled the king. Well, the royal adviser did as he was told. He pulled out the bottom book. And you know what happened. Down came the tower, down came the king, down came the princess, and down came the millions of poetry, fiction, non-fiction, and picture books. They were scattered everywhere throughout the palace yard and even beyond the boundary of the kingdom. Now, somewhere among all those books is the king and the princess. As yet, no one has found them. Perhaps, you might find them somewhere in the wonderful books in your library. Look for them! To the Library and Beyond! d C`) 'a169111412110%.r."""P.-.0"-^". b
