July 07, 2009: Another precious read from Eloise Wilkin. These stories take you back to a simpler time in America. A very nostalgic, sweet set of stories to share with your children as read-alouds. Although there is a girl on the cover, the stories inside are suitable for both boys and girls.
I Also Recommend: Little Mommy.
