Sobre IBD

Tell Me a Story, Please, Mi-mi! is written in poetry form with rhyming questions and answers between Maggie and her grandmother, Mi-mi. Mi-mi recalls the play times of her 1945-55 childhood on a small farm in rural Kentucky. Making mud pies, gathering eggs, and big porch swings are part of Mi-mi’s everyday fun. Baby Boomers will enjoy reading this book to their grandchildren and reminiscing about their own childhood. Mi-mi’s stories will motivate children to ask questions and help bridge generation gaps. A description of sibling relationships offers opportunities for children to identify and share feelings about their own relationships.
