Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome to Rai's Children's Story Hour. As a reminder,
0:06
rail Eye is a reading service intended for people who
0:10
are blinder of other disabilities that make it difficult to
0:13
read printum material. Today we will be reading from various
0:17
books on Martin Luther King Junior. Your reader today is Diane.
0:23
We will finish the book we began last time. Who
0:26
was Martin Luther King Junior. It was published by Penguin
0:31
Workshop and imprint of Penguin Random House. It has a
0:35
copyright year of two thousand and eight and the author
0:38
of the book is Bonnie Bader. Chapter eleven March on
0:42
if you couldn't get a city government to cooperate, Martin
0:45
decided to go higher up. Martin the Southern Christian Leadership
0:49
Conference playing another March to Washington, d C. For the
0:53
spring of nineteen sixty eight. The purpose was to get
0:56
Congress to pass laws that would help poor people get
0:59
better jobs. Before the Big March, Martin Luther King Junior
1:02
went to Memphis, Tennessee. Garbage workers were on strike. Martin
1:07
wanted to help them get a pay race. On March
1:09
twenty eighth, nineteen sixty eight, Martin and the Peaceful protesters
1:14
set out on the streets of Memphis once again. The
1:17
results was violent, but it was caused by some of
1:21
the marchers. Some teenagers broke into local stores and stowings.
1:27
A riot began. This went against everything that Martin stood for.
1:31
Martin returned home to Atlanta and did not come back
1:33
to Memphis until April third. Many people were threatened to
1:36
hurt Martin, but Martin was not afraid. He still hoped
1:39
to help the striking garbage workers. Martin met with some
1:43
of the other city and civil rights leaders the next day.
1:46
Later that evening, Martin stepped out onto the balcony of
1:49
his room at the Lorraine Motel. It was chilly outside,
1:53
but Martin was enjoying the fresh air. Suddenly, a gunshot
1:56
ran out. Martin fell to the ground. Martin Luther King
2:00
was dead. The civil rights movement had lost its strongest voice.
2:06
On June eighth, nineteen sixty eight, a white man named
2:09
James Old Ray was arrested for killing Martin Luther King. Junior.
2:12
Ray was born in Alton, Illinois, on March tenth, nineteen
2:16
twenty eight. Ray was a small town criminal. He robbed
2:19
gas stations and stores. He was in prison three times,
2:23
once in Illinois and twice Missouri. After Ray was arrested,
2:27
he confessed. He was sentenced to ninety nine years in prison. However,
2:32
Ray later claimed he was innocent but could never prove it.
2:35
In nineteen ninety eight, Ray died in prison. Chapter twelve,
2:40
The Dream Lives On. Martin Luther King, Junior was one
2:43
of the greatest civil rights leader of all time. Today,
2:46
people around the world still remember all he did in
2:49
his fight for equality. After Martin's death, Coreta carried on
2:52
her husband's fight. She traveled around the world and talked
2:56
about peace. She fought to end Apartheide, which was the
3:00
system of segregation in South Africa. Coreta fault for civil
3:04
rights until death in two thousand and six. Martin's children
3:07
carried on their father's message too. In nineteen ninety seven,
3:11
Martin Luther King the third was elected to head the
3:14
Southern Christian Leadership Conference. He stayed with the scl C
3:22
until two thousand and four, and Martin's youngest daughter, Bernice,
3:25
as a minister. She travels around the world speaking about
3:29
civil rights. Martin youngest's son, Dexter, attending Morehouse College in
3:34
nineteen ninety seven, Dexter visited James Earl Ray in prison.
3:37
After speaking with Ray, Dexter was convinced that this man
3:41
had not shot his father. Martin's oldest child, Yolanda, was
3:46
an actress, author, and peace advocate. Yoki appeared in several films,
3:50
including a mini series about her father called King. She
3:54
died on May sixteenth, two thousand and seven. She was
3:58
fifty one years old. In nineteen eighty, Martin's boyhood home
4:02
on Aarburn Avenue in Atlanta and other buildings nearby were
4:06
turned into a National Historic Site. Today, visitors can go
4:11
to the museum to learn about Martin Luther King Junior's
4:15
row in the civil rights movement, and in nineteen eighty three,
4:18
President Ronald Reagan signed a bill to create a federal
4:22
holiday to honor Martin. It is observed on the third
4:26
Monday of January each year, near the time of his birthday.
4:31
In his very last sermon on April third, nineteen sixty eight,
4:35
Martin Luther King Junior talked about his own death. He
4:37
hoped that people would remember him as a man who
4:41
tried to give his life serving others. He wanted to
4:44
be remembered for helping to feed the hungry, and for
4:47
loving people. Forty years later, people remember Martin Luther King
4:51
Junior and honor him for all this and more. Our
4:55
next books are about on the subject of winter in
4:59
the first one titled The Three snow Bears. It was
5:03
published by G. P. Putnam's Sons, a division of Penguin
5:07
Young Readers Group. It has a copyright year of two
5:11
thousand and seven and the author of the book is
5:14
Jan Brett. Come back, alu Key shouted as her huskies
5:20
floated out to see. Oh no, she knew that although
5:23
an ice floe is a good place to fish, is
5:26
a bad place to lose a dog team. Not far away,
5:29
a snowbear family had just started to eat their breakfast,
5:33
but it was way too hot for Baby Bear. Ali yell,
5:38
Baby Bear, my breakfast burn my mouth. We'll go for
5:41
a strow and let the soup cool, Mama Bear said.
5:45
Alukey was running along looking for dogs when she came
5:49
upon the biggest igglue she had ever seen. Who lives here,
5:53
she wondered. Alukey ducked inside right away she smelled something
5:59
to list Across the room, she saw a big bow,
6:02
a medium sized bow, and a small bow. Surely the
6:06
good smell was coming from the three bows. Lukey took
6:10
a sip from the biggest bow owl. She cried out,
6:14
too hot. She took a sip from the middle sized bow. Ooh,
6:18
too cold. She tipped up the littlest bow and drank
6:22
every drop. Mmm, she said, not too hot and not
6:27
too cold. In the next room of Lukey spotted three
6:31
pairs of beautiful boots standing in a row. She put
6:34
on the biggest boot, Too big, she said. She put
6:38
on the middle sized boot. Too fancy, she said. She
6:43
put on the littlest pear. Just right, she said, wiggling
6:48
her toes in the soft fur lining. Lukey walked into
6:52
the last room and found a long sleeping bench piled
6:55
with high with fur covers. He from an oil lamp
6:59
warmed her cheeks and made her sleepy. Time for a nap,
7:03
she thought. She crawled under the highest mound of covers.
7:07
Too lumpy, she grumbled. She tried the middle bed with
7:10
the furry French cover and sank down so far that
7:14
she could hardly breathe. Too soft, she said. She rode
7:18
over into the smallest sleeping place. The furry blanket was
7:22
cozy and warm. And the pillow was just her size,
7:26
just right. A looky murmured and was asleep before she
7:29
could take her boots off. If a Luki hadn't fallen
7:34
fast asleep, she might have heard her dogs barking happily.
7:38
Papa Bear, Mam Bear, and Baby Bear had spotted them
7:41
adrift in the strong currant and gone out to save them.
7:44
The snow bear family was pushing a Luki's dag team
7:47
back towards their i glue and too safety. Papa Bear
7:51
crawled into the igglue and saw his big bow sitting
7:55
in a pull of spilled soup. Someone has been tasting
7:59
my soup, he roared. Mama Bear rushing and saw that
8:03
her soup had been sloshed around too. Someone has been
8:06
sipping my soup, she growled. Someone found my soup, sputtered
8:12
Baby Bear in her high squeaky voice, and they ate
8:15
it all up. Papa Bear ran into the next room
8:19
and saw his boots in the middle of the floor.
8:22
Someone has been trying on my boots, he boomed in
8:25
his big bear voice. Mama Bear put on her fancy boots.
8:30
Someone has had these boots on, she huffed, and the
8:33
furs all bunched up. Baby Bear saw that her boots
8:37
had disappeared. Someone has taken my boots and left behind
8:41
these not as good ones. She whiled. The bears ran
8:46
into their bedroom. Someone has been sleeping in my bed,
8:51
Papa Bear, bellow. Someone has been sleeping in my bed too,
8:56
Mama Bear cried. Baby Bear picked at her little bed
8:59
and squeaked. Someone has been sleeping in muppet And here
9:02
she is. A Luku opened her eyes and saw three
9:07
bare noses only inches away. She hopped out of bed
9:12
and dove between Papa bears. Huge furry legs, quicker than
9:18
a seal, a Luki ran room to room until she
9:21
burst outside. Her huskies bounced around, barking and smiling their
9:26
doggy grins. A LOOKI and her dogs flew over the
9:30
frozen ice, dodging ridges and cracks. She looked back to
9:34
wag but thank you to the snow bears. She couldn't
9:37
see them, but she heard a big ruff voice, a
9:39
middle sized voice, and a high squeaky voice calling to
9:43
her bye bye, bye, bye bye bye. Her next book
9:51
is titled When the Moon Comes, and It was published
9:56
by Tundra, an in print of Peng Pen Gwen in
10:02
dome House has a copyright of twenty seventeen and the
10:06
author is Paul Harbridge. November is mild. The ducks stay
10:12
late on the big beaver flood in the woods behind
10:14
Bronton's farm. There is no snow. In December. Before a
10:19
single flake has fallen, the code snap comes for a week.
10:23
It is twenty below freezing, and when you walk in
10:25
the woods the leaves shutter under your feet like glass.
10:29
The beaver flood is ice now. The coat has come
10:31
so fast that not a piece of snow a ripple
10:34
of wind has frozen into the ice. It glistens, smooth
10:38
and perfect in the code Sun. Let's go now before
10:42
we lose it, we say, but off Arthur says no,
10:47
we have to wait for the moon. We see ducks
10:50
in the sky flock after flock, since south by the
10:54
sudden code. This week, the moon is growing Friday while
10:58
we sleep, the snow comes half a foot when we
11:01
wake up on Saturday, and it does not stop. But
11:05
Arthur says it's okay. Our eyes is waiting for us
11:08
under the snow. Sunday night, we see the moon rise,
11:12
large and ready. At Monday recess, we decide tonight's the night.
11:17
We pass the word Tonight's the night. At four we
11:21
are on the road. The sun is almost done already
11:24
the coat has settled by the noses and cheeks. At
11:28
Mark's house we send him back for his scarf and hat.
11:31
At Arthur's farm, we leave the road and wade into
11:35
the logging trail. Knee deep in snow. We walk between ridges,
11:39
through dense tama rack swamp, crisscrossed with rabbit tracks, and
11:44
up a high hill. In the distance we see the wide,
11:47
snowy flat of the beaver flood. Down the hill, we stumble,
11:51
and we are at the flood by dark. The snow
11:55
has wet our pants and our toes, our coat at
11:57
the end of our boots. We stamp and kick in.
12:00
Arthur makes a fire. The fire crackles high and hot.
12:04
We sit on logs and face our open skates to
12:07
the flames, heating them right to the toes. The harsh
12:11
smoke burns all our eyes in turn, but it is warm,
12:14
and we do not mind. Out On the beaver flood,
12:18
I fell through the snow with my stick, and Arthur
12:21
is right. The ice is waiting, perfect wonderful ice, says Arthur,
12:26
magic ice. We take turns pushing the shovel, and it
12:30
plows the light, playful snow, as if there were nothing
12:33
there at all. It is dark, dark now, and the
12:36
face of the sky is freckled with stars. But on
12:40
the far side of the flood the sky is brighter.
12:43
Behind the trees, the moon is rising. When the moon comes,
12:47
we glide out into the ice we have claned. It
12:51
is marvelous ice, as good as any we have known.
12:56
The game is on, and our shouts rise up and
13:01
disappear into the cold black sky en to end, and
13:04
around we fly, the long black stripes of our shadows,
13:07
moving across the moonlit ice. We play hard and sweat,
13:10
and the sweat freezes on hair and ears. We trip
13:13
and fall into the snow, and it steams our cheeks
13:16
as it melts, and the cold air burns our lungs.
13:20
We must be careful. Is so cold. There is a
13:23
ring around the moon. I look far down the flood.
13:29
I see something moving, a moose or a wolf or
13:32
a bear. I look behind me into the shadows of
13:34
the nearest trees and can see nothing but black. Then
13:38
Billy shoots too hard, and the puck flies underneath the
13:41
powdery snow. Who knows how far down the flood it
13:45
has sped. It's time, since Arthur tomorrow is school. We
13:51
skate puffing to the fire, and in a minute it
13:54
burns high again. We fill a pot brimming with snow,
13:57
and when it melts down, fill it again and again
14:00
until it is full and boiling. We drink scalding tea
14:03
and eat toasty sandwiches. Then tramp contented back into the night.
14:09
The top of the hill. We look back at the
14:11
slash of silver line, silent now in the expanse of
14:15
white bordered all around by black forest, wonderful ice, magic ice.
14:23
Back through the snow of the swamp, we weigh the
14:25
little blue shadows of rabbit tracks disappearing beneath our feet,
14:29
back between the ridges, keeping ever in the moonlight. Our
14:32
wet pants freeze solid in the code, and we walk,
14:35
clanking like knights in armor, lances over our shoulders, hoods
14:40
like helmets around our faces. We reach the road and
14:44
walk easy, now quite unhappy in the bright, bitter code.
14:48
One by one we lose teammates to the warmth of
14:51
their houses. Smoke rises from chimneys, moonlit white against the
14:55
dark sky. Then It is my turn, and I am warm,
14:59
deep under my blankets, but I cannot sleep. The moon
15:03
wants to pull me out the window and take me
15:06
back back along a snowy road and trail back to
15:11
that silent slash of silver in the cold, black night.
15:17
Our next book is called Winter's Gifts, an Indigenous Celebration
15:21
of Nature, and it was published by Convergent Books, an
15:26
imprint of Random House, a division of Penguin Random House.
15:30
It has a copyright year of twenty twenty three and
15:34
the author of our book is Caitlin Curtis. Danny touches
15:40
the frost cover branch on the oak tree in her yard.
15:43
She shivers, Winter or bond is coming in a few days.
15:48
Her family will light a fire or shakodi and think
15:52
about the darkest night of the year. Men or friends
15:56
are afraid of the dark, but not Danny. The dark
15:59
feels like a hug, and winter is a time for
16:01
cozy hugs. The dark of winter reminds us to rest.
16:05
Even the bears rest in winter. Inside the woodstove glows,
16:10
Danny coddles up next to her brother Beau and their
16:12
dog Sam. She thinks about hugs and good dogs. At
16:16
what it means to wait. The next day, there is
16:19
more snow on the ground. After school, Danny comes home
16:22
and makes snowballs to throw at her brother. By dinner time,
16:26
it is already dark. How long does the darkness last?
16:30
Danny as her parents. Her dad answers, the dark will
16:34
be here for a while. But when the Sun's birthday,
16:37
the winter Sulftest, comes, the days slowly get longer again.
16:41
That is one of Winter's gifts. Danny thinks about the
16:45
gifts of winter. They are different from the gifts that
16:48
come during the holidays. Winter's gifts are telling stories and waiting.
16:52
Another gift of winter's resting, like the bears. After we
16:57
rest for a while, the sun brings back the grass,
17:00
the flowers, and the leaves on the trees. Danny remembers
17:04
that Creator made the sun or guises, to be our
17:07
grandfather and the moon to be our grandmother. They work
17:11
together like partners to help us understand Earth and the seasons.
17:16
Danny knows that the earth is very special. Creator gave
17:20
her to us to be our mother and provide us
17:22
with the things we need to live. On the first
17:27
day of winter, Danny wakes up excited at school, Danny
17:30
and her classmates study the moon's faces. Danny loves Grandmother
17:34
Moon and is grateful for Creator's gifts of darkness and light.
17:39
That evening, Dany and her family like candles candles to
17:42
on the beginning of winter, the Sun's birthday. They eat
17:46
lots of food and talk about why they love Mother
17:49
Nature and Creator so much. They also talk about their
17:52
ancestors who celebrated the changing seasons. The next day, at school,
17:57
Danny tells her friends about our winter celebration. They laugh
18:00
and say that it's strange to celebrate the Earth. Danny
18:04
tells them about the gifts of rest and waiting. They say,
18:07
the Earth doesn't give us gifts. Danny walks away confused.
18:12
At home, Danny sits beneath her favorite oak tree, where
18:16
she built a fort. She talks to the trees and
18:19
touches the snow. She thanks them for their gifts and
18:22
hopes that one day her friends will understand. That night,
18:28
Danny tells her parents how said she is that her
18:30
friends don't believe in Mother Earth's gifts. Her mom says,
18:33
sometimes we forget that we are all friends with Earth
18:36
and every living creature. The winter teaches us to rest,
18:40
to remember and to be thankful. Your thankfulness is your
18:44
gift to Mother Earth. Danny. That night, she dreams she
18:49
has gathered with her friends in a big circle around
18:51
a giant tree, linking arms and singing. As they see
18:55
the animals come to join them. They sing to grandfather's
18:58
son until he and they sing his grandmother Moon dances
19:02
into the sky. The next morning, Dandy Danny thanks creator
19:06
for the dream, whispering nick which mammal gosseelnone. She gets
19:12
dressed and runs outside to her favorite oak tree. Leaves
19:16
dance in the wind, and snow falls off the branches
19:20
onto her head. Danny laughs. Her friends from school come
19:24
and ask if she likes to go sledding with them. Afterward,
19:27
they come back to Danny's house for hot coke. Danny
19:30
can't decide if she should show them her tree will
19:33
they laugh? Then she remembers what her parents told her.
19:36
She is proud to be friends with Mother Earth. Would
19:39
you like to see my favorite tree? She asks them.
19:42
Her friends follow her outside. How did you build this fort?
19:46
They ask? This tree is amazing, they say. Danny wonders
19:51
if she should tell them about her dream. She is nervous,
19:54
but she remembers what it's felt like to sing with
19:56
all her friends and the animals. She takes a deep breath.
20:00
A few of her friend's gig ones say they need
20:02
to go home, but two of her friends ask to
20:04
hear the song from her dream. Danny closes her eyes
20:08
and begins to sing. As she finishes her song, it
20:12
begins to snow. They all run back inside for another
20:15
cup of cocoa. Tell us about your winter gifts, Danny's
20:19
friends say. Danny tells them about waiting for spring, about
20:23
grandfather's son and grandmother moon, and about rest her friend's smile,
20:29
Danny smiles to our. Next story is about animal helping
20:33
other animals and is titled Ginger the Giraffe. It was
20:39
published by Monkey Pen Books. It has a copyright year
20:45
of twenty twenty and the author is T. Alberts. Once
20:53
upon time, there was a giraffe named Ginger. Ginger lived
20:57
in Kenya, a country in Africa. Like alles, Ginger had
21:01
a long neck and long legs. Because she was so tall,
21:04
she was able to eat food from the very tops
21:07
of the trees in the savannah. The savanna in Africa
21:11
is in an area with lots of grass and some trees.
21:14
Sometimes the savannah is called grasslands. Other animals like zebras
21:18
and antelopes, could not reach where Ginger could reach, but
21:22
Ginger always found food. She loved the leaves and the
21:25
new buds of the trees. One day, Ginger was busy
21:29
eating her favorite leaves along with some other giraffes. It
21:33
was a bright, sunny day and there was not a
21:35
cloud in the sky. It had not rained for a
21:39
long time, so the grass was very dry. She heard
21:42
a noise down at the bottom of her extra long legs.
21:45
It was her friend, Micky the monkey. Micky was trying
21:48
to say something, but Ginger could not understand what he
21:51
was saying. He looked very tired. What's wrong, as Ginger,
21:56
Ginger was a very kind giraffe and wanted to help everyone.
21:59
Just then, Nicky fell over. Ginger was also a smart
22:03
giraff She knew what was wrong. Micky couldn't find anything
22:06
to eat, and he was very hungry. Ginger nibbled some fresh,
22:11
tender leaves and buds from the top of the tree
22:13
where she was eating. She dropped some of the leaves
22:16
and buds to the ground near where Micky was Then
22:19
she nudged him a little with a hoof at the
22:22
bottom with one of her very long legs. Wake up, Micky,
22:27
said Ginger, I found something for you to eat. Slowly,
22:32
Micky sat up and ate a little. After a while,
22:36
when Micky was feeling better, Ginger asked him, what's happened, NICKI,
22:40
Why are you so hungry? Why can't you find anything
22:43
to eat? Micky said, it hasn't rained for so long,
22:46
and now there's no more food. That's not good, said Ginger.
22:50
What's happening with the other animals. No one knows what
22:54
to do, answered Micky. All the zebras and the antelopes
22:57
and the elephants are getting worried about the dry grass.
23:01
Some of them are thinking about leaving the savannah and
23:03
trying to reach the jungle. That's a long trip, said Ginger.
23:08
Are you going to go with them? I don't know,
23:12
answered Micky. What do you think we should do? Ginger
23:15
thought for a while, and then suddenly she had a
23:17
good idea. We should go back to Leo the lion.
23:21
He is a smart animal in the savannah. Micky was
23:24
too tired to walk, so Ginger invited him to ride
23:27
on her back. Hold on tight to my neck, said Ginger.
23:30
There's a lot to hold on to, joked Micky. Ginger laughed,
23:34
you're right, I had the longest neck in Africa. So
23:37
they started their journey across to the other side of
23:40
the savannah to look for Leo. Ginger and Micky were
23:44
in luck. Leo was sitting up on a rock and
23:48
it was really easy to see. As they walked through
23:50
the grass. Hi Leo, they both shouted. Leo had been
23:54
napping and was a little grumpy when they woke him up,
23:58
but he was polite and said hello, oh Ginger and Micky.
24:01
Why do you walk all the way across the savannah
24:04
just to wake me up? But he was joking. He
24:06
had a smile on his face. Micky says that there
24:09
is no food left on the savannah because it's been
24:12
so dry, said Ginger. Do you have any ideas Leo
24:17
thought for a while. He said, there's nothing we can
24:20
do about the rain. It will come soon, but we
24:22
can't be sure when it'll arrive. When the rain comes,
24:25
all the plants will grow again and there will be
24:28
lots of food for everybody. He thought a little longer.
24:31
The only thing that I can think of is for
24:33
everyone to move closer to the forest. He continued, there
24:37
will be more things to eat there, But I know
24:40
it's a long trip and it will not be very easy.
24:43
It might take days to get there. Ginger and Nicki
24:46
looked at each other and looked back at Leo. Thank you, Leo,
24:50
said Ginger. It's probably best if they all try to
24:53
get closer to the jungle. They said goodbye, and then
24:56
walked across the savannah. Now they headed together, all being
25:00
almost together, and start the long journey. Ginger didn't need
25:03
to go along because she had plenty of food in
25:05
her high trees, but she was a good friend and
25:08
wanted to help as much as she could. They walked
25:11
towards her favorite trees and guess what she and Nicky saw.
25:17
All the animals are already gethered there and waiting for
25:20
Ginger and Micky. Why are you all here, asked Ginger.
25:23
Eddie the eagle toast that you're taking us to the
25:26
edge of the jungle, said one of the zebras. How
25:28
did he know, asked Micky. I heard you talking with
25:31
Leo and one of the antelopes, so you've all decided
25:34
to try to walk together to the jungle, asked Ginger. Yes,
25:38
they all answered, if you'll help us to get there,
25:41
edd In, one of the elephants. Of course, i'll help,
25:43
said Ginger. I'm your friend. So they started on their
25:46
big journey across the savannah to the jungle. The sun
25:50
was so hot, and there was no food and no
25:52
place to get a drink of water. And then they
25:54
heard it. It was thunder. Thunder, they all shouted. Thunder
25:58
was very scary to the animal of the savannah. Can
26:01
you guess why? Fire? Sometimes the lightning hits the dry
26:05
grass and the whole savanna catches fire. Then everyone has
26:09
to run. And that is exactly what happened. Fire, they shouted.
26:13
They could smell it, and now they could see it.
26:16
The fire was coming towards them. Ginger had to think fast.
26:20
Because she was so tall, she could see farther than
26:24
any of the other animals. She stretched her long neck
26:27
as far as she could. Now she could see a
26:29
place where there was no fire. Quick she said, everyone
26:33
run this way, and all the animals followed her and
26:37
ran as fast as they could. Soon they were out
26:39
of danger. They stopped and gathered together one more time.
26:43
As everyone here, Ginger asked She wanted to make sure
26:46
they were all safe. All the animals looked around. They
26:51
were all there, and when and then the most wonderful
26:55
thing happened. I fell a drop, said zebra. Me too,
26:58
said an antelope. It was rain. Finally, everyone was very happy.
27:03
It starts rain a little more and then a little more.
27:06
The rain put out the fire so they didn't have
27:08
to run, and the rain filled their watering hose and
27:11
made the hands grow again so they didn't have to
27:14
make that long trip at the edge of the jungle.
27:16
Everyone would soon have enough food and water, so Ginger
27:20
the giraffe went back to her favorite tree and continued
27:23
to munch on leaves and buds. This concludes our Children's
