Description: Review of the book.
(March 01, 1991)
Jan Andrews. Illustrated by Karen Reczuch. Toronto, ON: Groundwood/Douglas & McIntrye, 1990. 32pp., laminated boards, $13.95. Kindergarten-grade 6 / Ages 5-11 tells how a boy and his grandfather come to grips with the sale of the family farm. It becomes clear later on in the story that this auction is the result of Grandmother's recent death. Many memories that were shared on the farm are retold, such as when Todd's mother was born, when they first got electricity, and when Grandmother used to make a variety of scarecrows to put out in the fields to scare away the birds. Todd had hoped to be a farmer like his grandfather and continue the traditions that were taught to him as a boy. To see his grandfather selling off the animals and equipment is almost more than Todd can take.
