        I think the last book I read to the kids was “A Treasury of Children’s Literature.”

        Beauty and the beast – castles are so mysterious!

        As an aside, I discovered your book set when I spotted the first title in the series – “If You Were Me and Lived in Scotland”. My Mom’s from Scotland so it would be amazing for her to read this book to my youngest! I would have the privilege of reading the remaining titles!

        We read my childhood Hallmark pop-up book version of Snow White. It was set in a very far land in the woods.
