simon the narrator

Ask Katy

First, let me just commend you on the best feature of the site. The other day, some old memory of Simon popped into my head. I am picturing him on a TV special narrating some sort of a story. I think he was on a pirate ship in some old sailor garb. I think he had a book
from which he read. And strangely, muppets are also rolling around in my head. So is the year 1985. Can you please tell me what the heck this is
all about? And even how I can find a copy. It's great to hear Simon reading poetry or stories. Thanks.

FIRST OF ALL, THANK YOU FOR THE COMPLIMENT. I APPRECIATE IT. SECOND OF ALL, YOU HAVE A VERY GOOD MEMORY! SIMON APPEARED IN A TELEVISION SPECIAL CALLED "DISNEY'S LIVING SEAS" -SO IT WASN'T MUPPETS YOU RECALL, IT WAS DISNEY CHARACTERS. DISNEY WORLD HAD JUST OPENED ITS "LIVING SEAS' EXHIBIT IN ORLANDO, AND THE TV SPECIAL COMMEMORATED IT. SIMON DID READ A PASSAGE OF A POEM FROM THE DECK OF A BOAT - WHICH WAS NOT THE DRUM!
