    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!

    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 look at the Sixties

I am typing with my left hand and right forefinger - not sure how long I can do this each day :) Thanks for your prayers, y'all.

Tripp sent me this link - which may be nostalgic for some of my readers, but for most might give you a short, comprehensive peek into your won parents' history.

Take Me Back to the Sixties.

Love,

It's interesting to look at the large changes that happened during that decade. As somone whose parents grew up during that decade, I often wish we could get back to the values held by most American's at the beginning of the decade. Wouldn't it be wonderful if American's no longer had to worry about their children being safe at school, or for that matter we would no longer have a need for home security systems! I personally think the changes back to that way of life have already started. It will just be an extremely slow process for the country, but I feel that eventually we can get back to that way of life!
