Archivist Helps Celebrate Reading at the Pike School

December 1st, 2009 · No Comments

Interim Academy Archivist Tim Sprattler recently traveled to the Pike School to participate in Pike’s Annual Celebration of Reading.  He chose a couple of cautionary tales to read to the fourth grade students, including Struwwelpeter,  which was translated from the German into English by Mark Twain.   All of the children enjoyed The Gashlycrumb Tinies, an alphabet book by Edward Gorey.    Tim also delighted the children with three examples of books featuring fore-edge paintings from Special Collections.
