Picture her wonder when Grandpa takes her to an old-fashioned general store. Feel her frosty nose when they go to the icehouse. Predict the trouble she’s in when she 'drives' the pickup into a fence. Marvel in the stories Grandma tells her about growing up in Sweden and her fear when Daddy tells her about getting shot at by thieves.Enjoy the changing of seasons as Sonja celebrates an old-fashioned Christmas, fears a raging blizzard, and welcomes the greening of the prairie in spring.
