by Marguerite de Angell ‧ RELEASE DATE: Oct. 9, 1936
This is one of the outstanding books of the current season. Ideal for reading aloud with the 7 and 8 year olds; easy going for the 8 and 9 year olds to read to themselves. A story of a little Amish girl who lives near Lancaster, Pennsylvania, in the Pennsylvania Dutch section. Lydia wants to be out and around, but something pricks her conscience into struggling through her first ""piece"" -- a hooked rug, and the prize promised her in the shape of a trip to market with her father.
