This book by Carl Sandburg is engaging and entertaining, and a great way to introduce children to more complex ways of understanding language without them even knowing they are learning something. These stories make an indelible mark, and even years after listening to my father read them night after night (because I begged without mercy), I can still remember how much fun it was for both of us to spend a night with this book.
