Books Are Treasures Forever: Betty’s Gift From Captain Fish

In short

Betty wrote this short post herself in October 2015. Captain Fish, also known as Frank Nichols, came over in his dinghy to welcome us to our boat and gave her a book called Frankie the Flying Fish. She finished it right away and loved it. Her verdict: books are treasures forever, and everybody should read Frankie the Flying Fish.

On October 1st, Captain Fish aka Frank Nichols came to welcome us on our boat, and gave me a book called, “Frankie The Flying Fish.”

I’ve already finished reading it and I really, really liked it because it had an adventure. That’s how books are treasures forever.

P.S. Captain Fish came on a dinghy and everybody should read “Frankie the Flying Fish.”👧🏼

  2. Hey Betty Boop, how are you? (It’s been too long since I’ve seen you, so you may not remember me.) I just learned of this blog today. I’ve read all your entries. You are one smart girl little sweetheart. I am looking forward to reading your posts. I have a friend at my end who is also nine years old. Her name is Elizabeth and I’m sure she would love to read your blog. I will tell her about you.
