You are in for a galloping-good time in this episode about the Pony Express. Yahoo!
Come with Old Mrs. Moody and Catbaloo to their library's used book sale where they find a very old and interesting book about the Pony Express. They discover, that if they close their eyes, they can "jump" into a picture in the book and become part of the story!
Kiddos learn interesting facts about the 1860's horse-and-rider Overland Mail Company (the Pony Express), while they learn the true meaning of patience.
Patience is not just waiting –– it is finding a way to be happy while you wait.
Their neighborhood friend, Lizbeth, returns as the librarian, and they meet new friends in 1860 Sacramento: brothers Tobias Lee, Jesse Ray and their mother; a pony express rider, and the Mayor of Sacramento, himself!
Old Mrs. Moody is called up onto the grandstand to grab the mail pouch from the Pony Express rider as he delivers the very first message from St. Joe, Missouri on April 14, 1860!
As always, thank you so much for listening. It means the world.
