  • 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.

Here is an eye-opening pictoral representation of how Swine flu measures up to other causes of death in the last 300 days. Click below it for larger version:

Barbara, I thank you so much for putting this information out there. We hear so much of this hysteria, and quite frankly I was scared about it since I am pregnant, mother of a six year old and taking care of my mom who has cancer. God Bless!

BTW - one thing I didn't mention (because I didn't know) when I sent this to Barbara is that the numbers are apparently from the WHO. If you click through to the large version, then click the link at the bottom of that page, you'll see the photo owner's description, which includes that info.

Thanks for posting this, Barbara.
