COME BY CHANCE

Bertha, wandering the wilds of Australia, happens on a tattered old house, which she energetically mends and patches. When the storms come, all kinds of animals, one by one, join Bertha by the fire until winter is over--a swell blend of the wild and domestic that makes for an enchanting peaceable kingdom in the cozy, mellow, beautifully designed illustrations. An unusual treat.
