In Grandma's Attic
Remember when you were a child - when all the world was new, and the smallest object a thing of wonder? Arleta Richardson remembers the funny wearable wire contraption hidden in the dusty attic, the century-old schoolchild's slate that belonged to Grandma, an ancient trunk filled with quilt pieces - each with its own special story - and the button basket, a miracle of mysteries. And best of all was the remarkable grandmother who made the magic of all she touched, bringing the past alive as only a born storyteller could. Here are those marvelous tales - faithfully recalled for the delight of young and old alike, a touchstone to another day when life was simpler, perhaps richer; when the treasure of family life and love were passed from generation to generation by a child's questions...and the legends that followed enlarged our faith.
