What if you read the story but didn't read the last pages where it tells that something bad happened to the towers? I guess another year you might have to send home a note in advance along with an explanation and maybe tell them you will leave out the pages that say something bad happened to the towers. You might want to check with your admin on that one.Laura Candlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09197589693576774035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-871736047643866747.post-71987304328035735512014-09-06T10:23:37.014-04:002014-09-06T10:23:37.014-04:00What age would you recommend.
