    The Ancient One says

    Very Tall Trees
    by Laura J. Bobrow

    One day I stood under a very tall tree.
    The leaves were so high I could hardly see them, and I'm certain the
    leaves couldn't see me.
    "Well," I thought, "I'd like to be higher."
    So I went and got the wheelbarrow, a rickety old box,
    and a rubber tire.
    It took a lot if thinking to get them arranged just right,
    And they almost reached to the very first branch ... but not quite.
    So then I got a telephone book, the watering can and a chair.
    And when they were all together, I said to myself, "There."
    I said to myself, with one foot in the barrow,
    "I'll just climb up this tree and go visit a sparrow."
    There's no trick to balancing on a rickety old box
    If you know how to rick when the rickety box rocks.
    If Mother could see me, I thought, on this tire,
    "Why, where in the world are you going?" she'd inquire.
    And I practiced my very most I-Don't-Care look
    As I stood on one hand on the telephone book.
    But then, when I got to the watering can,
    It wasn't as easy as when I began.
    I had one foot on the handle, and one on the spout,
    And I wasn't afraid. I was looking about.
    I waved to the birds. I breathed some air,
    And I could have made it up on to the chair,
    When along came the breeze,
    Which tickled my knees,
    And I started to sneeze,
    And kerplunk! I fell down as nice as you please.

    Which is what is the matter with very tall trees.

    tales of beedle the bard was good! such great stories. however, some of my friends thought they weren't that great. my crazy bf purchased the collectors edition while i just got the standard edition for $8 :P ya the inkheart movie looks good... looks like a great cast. i was meaning to read it anyway so i thought i should get on it before the movie comes out! :)
