Excerpt
"Through the green vines we peek my Brother and I. High over head we see the blue of the sky. We peek again what do we see? We see two white ducks, one small brown rabbit, and four black hens as fat as can be. They are walking and scratching and hopping all around our leafy bean house."
I agree with Walker Jackson...It makes me wish I were a kid again too!

As an elementary teacher for all of my adult life I was always looking for books that my children would read. I am sure they would have read this one! Good job!

Though I regrettably am no longer very familiar with the genre, the review does exactly what a good review is supposed to do...sketch the story in a way that prompts the reader to find out more. Nice job: I'm sure the author is pleased with it.
