Reading Review

My pappy used to tell us stories about these two crows who would steal your toys f you didn't put them away. He also told me about when he was younger... and how one time he and his buddies broke into the church to baptize this stray dog they had found. They figured that even this homeless mutt deserved to have a name and get to go to heaven. You might not think it now, but Pappy was a charmer...What point of view?
