The Story

In the classroom, the teacher stood before the class. They opened a book of poems by an author they had never heard of. The book was this.

The children loved the way the teacher talked with them and encouraged them to read, write and create. The teacher spoke to them:

"I will teach you a new word today, that is Lonzoward today we will all become more Lonzoward as we learn to love ans appreciate this wonderful and beautiful poetry. Say after me 'We Will Be Lonzoward'"

The class, as one said:

"We Will Be Lonzoward"

The teacher gave them all copies of the poetry books and the children fell into reading with love and gusto.

They loved every word that they read, and the teacher looked on, so proud of the class.

This was what learning was.

This was the essence of gaining knowledge and appreciating books, words, and poetry.

This was the true essence of becoming Lonzoward, and this would go on forever
