Long Ago Yesterday — Anne Rockwell

"Not so long ago," each of these ten stories begins. And if yesterday is long ago, toddlers will understand the truth and immediacy of these tales and realize that their lives can be transformed into story. For here is real life itself:adventures that may not be large on a grown-up scale, but are enormous and important to anyone under five. Anne Rockwell is on the wave-length of the very young child, as her exuberant but tender words and pictures prove. Young listeners will want to hear these tales, tell them to anyone who will listen, and hear them again. Sit down and read them out loud. See what happens. You will have fun!
