Mrs. Coldren's Blog You're never too old, too wacky, too wild, to pick up a book and read to a child – Dr. Seuss 

What a fascinating topic to explore!  There are so many things to know and to learn.  Yesterday, we read together a text about astronauts and the space shuttle.  I can remember a time when my family was on the beach in Florida and we actually saw the space shuttle as it was lifting off into space.  We even had a chance to visit the Kennedy Space Center.
