Teaching Ideas:
Teachers may want to use this with other WWII books (such as Rylant's I Have Seen Castles), with other reminiscences about country or rural life (such as with Rylant's When I Was Young in the Mountains), or with other books about grandparents (such as Hendershot's Up the Track's to Grandma's). Teachers may also want to use this as an introduction to some of Donald Hall's more demanding stories or poems or as part of a unit on the illustrator Barry Moser.
