The Fighting Moose

It's a double feature...kind of. Today, we read the story “The Bad Little Goblin's New Year” written by Mary Stewart. In addition to this story, I include a short poem about New Year's in the introduction titled “The Glad New Year” written by Mary Mapes Dodge. Both of these items come from the book “The Pearl Story Book” compiled by Ava Skinner and Eleanor Skinner.

Have you ever found or seen cool things in the woods? I have many times, my most recent cool discovery is an old cemetery with headstones with late 1800 and early 1900 dates engraved on them. Well, this discovery leads us into today's story. During my exploration of this cemetery, I found a military grave marker with the “Spanish American War” engraved on it. I don't know much about this war so I went in search of information about it. So today, we read the story “The Cause of the War” which comes to us from the book “The Young People's History of the War With Spain” written by Prescott Holmes.

Have you ever read the story “The Gingerbread Man?” If you have, have you noticed that there are a few different variations? Now I don't really know if it is just variations in text or just variations that I found on YouTube but there are a few out there as I found out this week. So today, I will read a version that I found titled “The Little Gingerbread Man” written by George Haven Putnam.

Do you have deer in your yard? We did last night. We do a lot of nights but we don't always see them. We saw one last night so it brought about today's story. Today, we read the story “Lightfoot, Blacktail, and Forkhorn” which comes to us from the book “The Burgess Animal Book for Children” written by Thornton W. Burgess.

What is Thanksgiving without a turkey story? Looking back at the episodes released in November, I have really been slacking, there were no turkey stories. Let's fix that today. Today, we read the story “Mother Turkey and Her Chicks” which comes to us from the book “The Sandman's Hour” written by Abbie Phillips Walker.

How many Webster's do you know? From history...I know of two. In my everyday life, I know a handful. Well, today, we read a short biography about Daniel Webster who was a preacher, mainly, who lived from 1782 to 1852 and was also the Secretary of State under President William Henry Harrison. Today's story comes from the book “The Children's Book of American Biography” written by Mary Stoyell Stimpson.

When viewing Jupiter with a telescope or binoculars, you can see four dots next to it. These are the four largest moons of Jupiter, one of which is Europa. According to NASA, this is a celestial body that could possibly sustain life. As with a lot of celestial names, it seems, we get a lot of them from Greek mythology. So today, we read the story “Cadmus and Europa” which comes to us from the book “Old Greek Stories” written by James Baldwin.
