I actually got this recommendation from a fellow blogger who also enjoys reading books with her kids. Its amazing how many extraordinary children's books there are out there. I loved this one! I've read Patricia Polacco before, but I've never happened upon this gem. It made me wish to be transported to this simpler time of listening to old relative's stories, having sack races, and catching fireflies in a jar. It truly made me long to be a kid again.
We had the oppertunity to have authors came to our elementary school to speak to us and meet us every year. She was the coolest and most memorable author in my young mind. I will always remember her one-on-one with me. I appreciate her books more as an adult though! Love this blog Maren!
