The Jelly Bean Fun Book

When I was in the first grade we always had a show and tell time, sadly so many kids would bring things in not everyone always got to go. One day I was looking through our school library and I found this book,The Jelly Bean Fen Book, I read it over and over again. I was infatuated with this seemingly simple book. I decided that this would be something great to share with the rest of my class during show and tell. The colors were vibrant, we all still loved learning, and it had pictures, everything about this book was so perfect. Time after time I raised my hand to go to the front of the class room and share my newly found treasure, but I never got picked. So I thought to myself, "That's OK I'll just bring it back next week." So I renewed the book at the library that week, but once again I didn't get picked to go to the front for show and tell. This process went on for weeks and still I never got sick of reading this book about counting with jelly beans. Then one week the librarian told me that other kids were asking about the book because they had seen me reading it all the time, and asked if I would check it back in so that others could it enjoy as much as I did. I reluctantly agreed, because it was show and tell day that day. When I got home there was a bag sitting on the table, and inside of the bag was The Jelly Bean Fun Book! Sometimes I sit down and read this seemingly simple book just to remind myself of the the joys of life. And this is why The Jelly Bean Fun Book is still to this day my favorite book.
