  • The Little Red Hen
    The Little Red Hen
    Hooray for a good work ethic! The little red hen asks but receives no help in her efforts to put bread on the table. Yet all who wouldn't help would like to eat. In a refreshingly old-fashioned triumph of moral consequences, they don't get to!
  • Noisy Nora
    Noisy Nora
    Poor Nora! The loveable mousette experiences all the pangs of the child-in-the- middle, caught between the demands of baby brother and bossiness of big sister. Catchy meter, playful illustrations make for a wonderfully satisfying mouse's tale. Baby-Preschool

    A Chair for My Mother
    A remarkably beautiful story told by a young girl whose mother is a waitress. Since they lost all their furniture in a fire, they've been saving mother’s tips in a jar – so they can buy a big comfortable chair for their whole family to enjoy – daughter, mother and grandmother. Life has its ups and downs, but there’s always lots of love. Ages 4-7

Those with kids with disabilities will appreciate this site on teaching our kids to dress themselves. And there's probably some useful tips for new moms who grew up - as one reader here recently mentioned - without younger brothers and sisters to help care for.

Love,

Dear barbara,

I am so glad i came across this blog site. Your life is so similar to mine in some ways. I have adopted a boy who is disabled. I am planning to adopt two more this spring. I am interested in adopting a child with down syndrome. Thankyou for sharing this blog. It is very encouraging.

Lottie
