Here are nearly two dozen vignettes that--in classic Rockwell fashion--parents and children will love to explore. The girl gobbles a banana for breakfast while racing out the door, takes revenge on a boy at the town pool, shares a bike ride and movie with a special friend, dresses up for a fancy birthday party, and then finishes it all with some late-night journal jotting. At the back of the book is a short biography of Rockwell, as well as an interview with Mary Whelan, the woman who, as a young girl more than sixty-five years ago, posed for the charming series of pictures.
