“Because you, mouse, can tell a story. Stories are light. Light is precious in a world so dark. Begin at the beginning. Tell a story. Make some light.” - Kate DiCamillo, The Tale of Despereaux
Christ's Haven's Educational Coordinator, Amy Lester, recently celebrated the success of a couple of our elementary-age students finishing "The Tale of Despereaux." They've read the novel out loud together a chapter at a time for the last few months.
Soup represents a major theme of the book, so they went to Amy's house and prepared a corn chowder from scratch to enjoy while they watched the movie together.
We love the opportunity to bring a book to life, create fun memories, and "make some light!"
