This hard bound book was published in 1939, somewhere in Britain. The special thing about this story is the illustrations by Worth Gruelle, Johnny's son.
You can see Worth inherited a lot of Johnny's talent. I love these little Ann and Andy.
I may post this story as it is a whole book so it will take up some Wednesday as we go along but I definitely want to read it.
The quality of the pages in this book are similar to photos, it's a sweet gift from a thoughtful guy.
And this little snippet is at the end of the book.

I like the Gruelle deal. Such a nice mantra and really good!
P.S. Great on the wifi! You mean wireless networking right? Now you can blog from the couch!
Wireless when I have my surgery. Hospitals have come a ways.
I love books and old books are treasures!
I love that they don't want any of that in their books! I remember checking my blog in the hallway of the hospital!! I am thinking of you and if all goes well today....which so far it has not...I will be calling you! I woke up with a terrible allery again...this time my left eye! Below the eye is a big area filled with fluid! Yuck! I am NOT leaving the house today if I can get away with it and will be on benedryl I guess and be drowsy. Oh well...I am alive! You have such a great husband that he would get that for you!!
Debbie, The reception gave me a code to sign in with my own laptop! How cool is that? Not so much a overdose on T.V. and I can get email.
Don't worry about calling me, ugh on the allergies especially the eye and all this heat on top of it! Hurricane coming though, button down, I know I'm nagging my hubby about it.
Oh that is such a cute book. JOAT's is such a sweetie!
Love those old books. I like the Gruelle idea. Too much violence today for kids to see or read.
