Tell Me A Story: How Children Rule The World

Rhian asked me to write a story about her this morning. So, she pulled up her chair beside me, and started to eat her bread and salami, and drink her cup of Lipton's tea. "Go on, Daddy. Write my name and see how the story grows." I started to write her name and look, the story is already growing. What fun!

She then asked if the computer could say the story: she knows that a little button on the blog will let a computer voice become the story teller. She said "Hey! I want that to happen." That is all of the story. Do you like it? Rhian said "Yes!"
