  6. 24. Travel For Fun

    I want to travel around the world for fun,
    And see different lands, one by one.

    The child knows best...
    A book's a story waiting to be read
    Taking one to where their feet never tread
    Be it fact or fiction whatever's told
    It's a mystery about to unfold.
