And so we arrived at the 'puppet show'...
... with five or ten minutes to spare. We went into the big Methodist Church Center and found dozens of kids and parents (actually, mommies - Uncle Clemens was the only male adult to be seen) milling around tables stacked with Rosemary Wells' children's books.
Maeráed immediately marched up to the display, said "Look, it's Max and Ruby" and grabbed one of the little books. So it was - cute little bunnies named Max and Ruby. She said she knew them from TV. She was so intent on the little book that I asked if she wanted it.
"No, I want to look at it."
"Are you sure? I'll buy it for you if you want it."
"Uncle Clemens, I just want to look at it. Then I will put it back over there!" and she points to the stand the book had been on. Nice to meet a kid who knows her own mind - and doesn't hesitate to tell you about it!
So now that I knew who Max and Ruby are, we went into the big gym where the show would take place.
BTW, if you want to read a little Max and Ruby story to some little one, click here.
