Mysteries of myself

Open A Book

Open a book

And you will find,

People and places of every kind;

Open a book

And you can be,

Anything you want to be;

Open a book

And you can share,

Wondrous words you find in there

Open a book

And I will too,

You read to me,

And I'll read to you!

I Opened a Book

"I opened a book and in I strode.

Now nobody can find me.

I've left my chair, my house, my road,

My town and my world behind me.

I'm wearing the cloak, I've slipped on the ring,

I've swallowed the magic potion.

I've found a dragon, dined with a king

And dived in a bottomless ocean.

I've opened a book and made some friends.

I shared their tears and laughter

And followed their road with its bumps and bends

To the happily ever after.

I finished my book and out I came.

The cloak can no longer hide me.

My chair and my house are just the same,

But I have a book inside me."

~Julia Donaldson~
