Grandma’s Attic Treasury – Arleta Richardson | David C Cook

Description

Remember when you were a child – when all the world was new, and the smallest object a thing of wonder? Arleta Richardson remembers: the funny wearable wire contraption hidden in the dusty attic, the century-old schoolchild’s slate that belonged to Grandma, an ancient trunk filled with quilt pieces – each with its own special story – and the button basket, a miracle of mysteries. Best of all was the remarkable grandmother who made magic of all she touched, bringing the past alive as only a born storyteller could.

Here are those marvelous tales faithfully recalled for the delight of young and old alike – a touchstone to another day when life was simpler, perhaps richer – when the treasures of family life and love were passed from generation to generation by a child’s questions…and the legends that followed enlarged our faith.

This four-volume set contains In Grandmas Attic, More Stories from Grandmas Attic, Still More Stories from Grandmas Attic, and Treasures from Grandmas Attic together in a sturdy slipcase.

About the Author

The late Arleta Richardson grew up in Chicago under grandmothers care. As they sat overlooking the shores of Lake Michigan, her grandmother shared memories of her childhood on a Michigan farm. These treasured family stories became the basis for the Grandmas Attic series.
