But the rhymes of the giant who roared, "I smell the blood of an Englishman !" were no better. And we wouldn't dream of trying to improve on a classic folk tale. But what we would dream of doing. — and have been doing for the past two months, as our open- ing advertisement promised — is telling folk and fairy tales and reading poetry to small groups of nursery school children. Would the children of your nur- sery school enjoy such an ex- perience? If so, and if you can limit the group to about a dozen, telephone or -stop by and talk to Frank Martin, Manager of Dick- ens' Den. Then one morning soon, your children will be jouncing along the road with Jack, "jigglety-jolt, jig- glety-jolt" as he goes to seek his fortune ; or pretending to tremble at the terrible voice of the Troll challenging : "Who's that tripping over my bridge ?" ; or smiling to hear that, "The Owl and the Pussy Cat went to sea in a beautiful pea- green boat . . ." You won't mind if we have as much fun as the kids, will you ? The Compleat Bookstore EVERGREEN PLAZA 12 MILE AND EVERGREEN SOUTHFIELD MICHIGAN 48076 557-8803
