There Was a Wee Woman . . . (Melanie Kroupa Books), by Erica Silverman, is a delightful story based on the popular Mother Goose rhyme. An old shoe housed the little old woman, her many wee children and their tiny pets too.
One day, the little old woman exploded and said, "Get me out of this shoe." So, they all packed up and set off down the road. Jack, one of the wee children, was afraid to venture out into the unknown. Jack said, "Let's not go. Thre are giants out there!"
The Wee Woman pressed on...and overcame serveral obstacles along the way. She knew she would find a better life for her children...if she didn't give up.
One day the wee family decided to take a nap in a huge garden pail. They soon learned that the pail belonged to a friendly GIANT. The giant took the family home and told them they could live with her. The giant had some giant toys spread-out on the floor. In the center of the floor was a giant-size doll house!
The Wee Woman and her family had a brand new home - and a new friend. This is a wonderful rhyming story with lively color illustrations.
