Unique story that revolves around "the old folks"
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
This wonderful little story revolves around the elderly folks. Mrs. Gardenia, who just lost her husband, is "courted" by Mr. Bennett. He catches a hearty size fish in the pond and requestss her presence for dinner, and happily, he proceeds to cook the fish. Well, the fish slips away and makes the round suspiciously through the neighborhood. Illustrations are full size, while the reading is light on each page. Its colorful drawings enhance the storyline. Excellent departure from the average children's story. This story teaches children that "love" exists throughout, even with the "old folks" .....MzRizz
