Secular Web Kids Tails: Darth Harley For A Time Such As This
“Perhaps you have come to royal dignity for just such a time as this. (Esther 4:14).” As was usually come to pass at the end of the day, Darth Harley walked down the Angus Path, particularly pleasant and orange on a autumn eve such as this, and reflected on the day at school. His teacher…
