Well, that’s the end of the story- there isn’t any more LEFT- I know I’m RIGHT because it was my job to WRITE the RIGHT/LEFT story- and WRITE it I did.
So, if you see Uncle Harv and Aunt Ethel at the reunion be sure and ask them if they are feeling alRIGHT and give Uncle Harv a pat RIGHT on the back and Aunt Ethel a kiss RIGHT on the cheek and let them know how glad we are that they could come to the family reunion. She headed RIGHT for the freeway and before anyone knew it, they arrived at the family reunion RIGHT on time. The kids cheered and Ethel turned RIGHT out of the Dowinkle’s driveway and LEFT their new friends in a RIGHT big cloud of dust. “I’m driving the rest of the way to the reunion”, Ethel said, “Is that alRIGHT with you?” She asked the kids. After eating, Harv and Ethel gave all ten of the Dowinkles a big hug and LEFT. There was room for everyone RIGHT at the big table, in fact there was even some room LEFT- over.īreakfast was so good that no one LEFT anything on their plate.
Ethel sat RIGHT next to Ma Dowinkle and Harv sat RIGHT next to Pa Dowinkle. As we Harv and Ethel and their kids sat down at the huge kitchen table the Ma Dowinkle asked that they sit on their RIGHT side so that they wouldn’t bump elbows. (Everyone in their family was LEFT handed- isn’t that odd?) Harv and Ethel LEFT their coats RIGHT by the front door. The family consisted of Ma and Pa Dowinkle and their eight kids. Although Harv and Ethel were anxious to get RIGHT back on the road, and Uncle Harv’s RIGHT knee felt a little stiff, they decided the nice thing to do was to eat breakfast with the family. They were RIGHT neighborly though and invited us RIGHT into what was LEFT of their house to have breakfast with them.

Let me tell you what happened to Uncle Harv and Aunt Ethel on the way to this reunion. Be sure and read with lots of expression and pauses- the children in your family will have fun anticipating RIGHT or LEFT.

As you read the story, they pass (the gifts) left when you say left, and pass them right when you say right. Large candy bars, money, and 2 liter bottles of soda are always a hit.Įveryone sits in a circle.
