If you can still remember that far back, do you have a favorite story or book that you read—or had read to you—as a child? I always liked the "message" type stories; I can't recall the name, but I liked one about a chicken that was was going to bake some bread. She canvassed her friends to help her collect the wheat, roll the dough, bake, etc. and nobody wanted to help, so she ended up making the bread by herself. After they smelled its deliciousness, everyone wanted some, but she chastised and turned them away for being unhelpful.

In my haste to amuse myself above, I may have led this thread astray. I'm sorry, so let me recommend a very amusing book for 1-4 graders:
Dr. DeSoto by William Steig
A cliff-hanger that the same age group will love is:
My Teacher Is An Alien by Bruce Coville
