Episode 219

Kino, who is painting with Lucy, is almost finished with his finger painting. Lucy brings in the mail with a letter and picture from a boy named Tony. She reads a story about an errand at the post office. After Kino cleans up, Laura Dern reads one about a little shepherd boy from the Southwest. They talk about books, like letters, can take you to faraway and new places; but, to write letters and enjoy books, you need to know how to read. Laura reads a book about a little girl who doesn't know how to read.
