Shorts and Flip-Flops

I’ve was tagged by Jennifer a long time ago.  I’m just now getting to it.

Here’s the rules: Grab the nearest book. Open the book to page 56. Find the fifth sentence. Post the text of the next two to five sentences in your journal/blog along with these instructions.Don’t dig for your favorite book, the cool book, or the intellectual one: pick the CLOSEST. Tag five other people to do the same.

The closest book to me is one I read every year to the kids near Thanksgiving. It is Stories of the Pilgrims by Margaret Pumphrey.

“Before the stork had time to spread its wings, Jacob struck him with his staff.  I am sure he did not mean to kill the bird, but there he lay dead.”

I will tag Cassia and Levi.
