David O. McKay once said, "I never tell a story to children who do not think. There is no use talking to children who do not think. Some teachers make that mistake-- they give the lesson, but they do not stop to see whether or not the thoughts are in the minds of the children. If your children will answer a few questions so that I shall know that you are thinking, I will tell you a story illustrative of the value of character."
