  • 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

I borrowed this from CatholicVote.org. If you're reading on Sunday, I did post 40 entries last week, so there's still a lot to catch up on!

Feel free to drop me a comment just to say hi - that'll get me started tomorrow morning :)

Love,

I know nothing about the individual singers, but their rendition of 'Ave Maria' sweeps away the discouragement I feel about our sad deluded world.

Just coming off the conversation...40 or so posts ago about prenatal testing, I came across this article from a link on another blog and wondered if you had read it? I am sick to my stomach.

These parents are suing for millions of dollars because they would have aborted their daughter had the testing accurately told them that she had downs. Now they want the money it'll cost to raise her.

Barbara,
I wanted to send a 'thank you' your way for all of the posts about America/July 4th/the Declaration of Independence, etc. We spent some time on July 4th reading the Declaration of Indpendence to our 8, 6, and 4 year old children. Thanks for taking the time to provide those links.
Karen
