The Rag Coat
AuthorLauren A. Mills
ISBN0316574074

She can...

I love Brer Rabbit. Song of the South was re-released in theaters when I was 6 years old and I fell in love with him. We had a book of Joel Chandler Harris’ stories at home and my mother read for me with what I remember as great enthusiasm (although she was probably exhausted). I also had a book and record of...

This is one of my favorite Usborne books from my childhood. Well, we actually had it as individual books, and only of the first three sections, so I was even more excited to see a version where they're all together. I don't know whether this was ever used in my schooling or not -- it probably was, but what I...
