Mary Alice Downie<br />
Illustrated by Mary Jane Gerber<br />
A is for Abigail and Anna, Zebediah’s two sisters. He is making<br />
them an alphabet book.<br />
From B, which stands for bandalore, a forerunner of the<br />
yoyo, H for the hornbook that taught children to spell, and on<br />
through the pigeons that blackened the sky, to the uniform that<br />
Papa wore when he defended the king, right through to X for the<br />
eXhaustion of parents who are homesteading. This lovely romp<br />
through the seasons on a pioneer farm is full of fascinating<br />
information.<br />
Artist Mary Jane Gerber has placed numerous items in each<br />
of her paintings and detailed borders, and there is a useful list of<br />
them for readers to find. Author Mary Alice Downie has<br />
included detailed background notes, making this a sweet<br />
introduction to our history.<br />
