"We had a small post office in those days. Valentines
came by Sparrow post."
this was one of my favorite books as a child. it was out of print for a long time but was recently published again.
"It's not that I do not like people," said she,
but one gets a bit shy when one lives in a tree."
a simple classic appropriate for the long winter days ahead of us."The postman said it looked like snow. The farmer said it smelled like snow."
perhaps a favorite for everyone. love this book. "Then he looked up into the tree. And what do you think he saw?"
this richard scary book is delightful!
"Sometimes the bus is crowded. The polite elephant always offers his seat to a lady."

I found this pair from bonny neiman antiques. do you have favorite cutting boards - with memories embedded in the wood?
