rachel carson and her young nephew, roger, explore the forest and the beach along the coast of maine.

it is a great book for all ages:)

Grandma Moses turned to painting in her late senventies for practical reasons, after working with worsted wool to make embroidered scenes which risked being eaten by moths. She painted mostly rural scenes of farm life in America, and was wildly popular in Europe and Japan. She remained more proud of her preserves than her paintings, and proudest of all of her children. This is my book cover for Grandma's M's "The Burning of Troy".
