Publisher's Synopsis
When Alice Ozma was in fourth grade, she and her father decided to see if he could read aloud to her for 100 consecutive nights. On the hundredth night, they shared pancakes to celebrate, but it soon became evident that neither wanted to let go of their reading ritual. So they decided to continue what they called "The Streak," including such diverse works as Great Expectations by Charles Dickens, the Oz books by L. Frank Baum, Harry Potter by J. K. Rowling, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll, and Shakespeare's plays. Alice's father read aloud to her every night without fail until the day she left for college. This book is a series of vignettes about her relationship with her father and the life lessons learned from the books he read to her.
