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 />
