Hollywood Theatre

You don't even need to move your feet to see the next stop. Turn your head to the right and look past the busy traffic on Sandy Boulevard. You should see the beautiful and impressive Hollywood Theatre, built in 1925. Nearly 100 years of movie-lovers have walked past those impressive terra cotta carvings, including Beverly Cleary! Take a close look and see what you can find in the ornate facade. Maybe a bearded face or a ram's head or even a mermaid!

This is also where Henry and his parents come to see a movie (a Western, Henry hopes) after an exhausting and successful paper drive in Henry and the Paper Route. Most remarkably, they go to the movies on a school night! That's how you know it was a special treat.
