Home in the Woods

22 May

We LOVE this story we checked out from the library. It is based on the true story of the author’s grandmother who, when she was 6 years old, moved with her mother and 7 brothers and sisters into a little shack deep in the woods of Wisconsin. (It was 1932, they were evicted from their home and their father died of cancer before he finished moving them into the shack.). We loved reading about the treasures they found in the woods and the games they invented to make their hard work fun. Also the pictures are beautiful.
