[LM_NET] GEN: Story candles and poems

[Judy Freeman <BKWSSF@AOL.COM>]

Does anyone have a little poem or interesting ritual you do when starting a 
storytime, like lighting a story candle? I seem to recall a little rhyme 
that begins, "Storytime magic, come into this room . . ." which may be from 
Alice Yucht (are you out there, Alice, or still on vacation?).

Thanks--

Judy
