Description
A charming picture book about an old-fashioned New England summer in 1910. Poet laureate Donald Hall grew up spending his summers on his grandfather's farm, where he milked cows and heard stories that are brought to life in this story. The biggest celebration of the year was the July Fourth parade, complete with flags, marching bands, speeches, and ice cream. A trip to Boston, where toys could be bought for a penny apiece, was a major event. This book shares old-time summer traditions and history with your child, bringing back a simpler time when pleasure came from making as much as buying. The story is accompanied by delightful handcolored scratchboard illustrations by Michael McCurdy, published in the same format as Donald Hall's Lucy's Christmas.
