  • 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

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.

I just discovered you live in Northern Virginia. I'm a Virginia Shenandoah Valley girl. Great to run into you. I came from Momma B's blog.

Here is southeastern VA, the weather can do the same thing! ;)

But, I count myself blessed. My mother had 2 snow days off of work when it was 70s and 80s here - and they live in Big Snow Country! Yikes.
