Product Description
Stories to Love, Laugh, and Live By If you are young enough to love a story and #151;and just about everyone is and #151;here are more stories from Grandma's attic. Magical pieces of a day gone by . . . told by that natural storyteller of all loving families and #151;Grandma, the one who never forgets the fun and laughter of a simpler, perhaps richer time. Stories of an old rag doll that seems to come alive . . . of a newborn goat dancing stiff-legged in the old farm kitchen . . . and of a faith that gives life meaning. Here are those marvelous tales and #151;faithfully recalled for the delight of young and old alike, a touchstone to another day when life was simpler, perhaps richer; when the treasures of family life and love were passed from generation to generation by a child's questions . . . and the legends that followed enlarged our faith.

We love this whole series April 12, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
We discovered the first book in this series, Stories from Grandma's Attic, through Sonlight. We read that first book as a read-aloud. We both enjoyed it very much. I ended up ordering most of the rest of the series from Amazon and when the box got delivered my daughter sat right down and proceeded to read the next book in the series by herself. Those books have become her "read in the car" books for when we are running errands. Love em! Highly recommend them! A great way to show the way life was way back when.
Even for boys... February 1, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Although this book is about Mable, the author's grandma, and stories she heard from her as a child, my son enjoyed it as well. He has read the first book, "In Grandma's Attic", and this one to both of his sister's. He has now moved on to Harry Potter. But, will still come back to these books as his sister's request a favorite story to be read again. They are wonderful lessons about life and trusting the Lord even as a child. I am excited to go on to the next book in the series.
Excellent... a lot like the Anne of Green Gables series June 20, 2000 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
This book focuses on Mabel, a grandmother now who is raising her own granddaughter. She tells the funniest stories from her own life on a farm in early America. Quite clumsy and full of mischief she and her friend and two brothers learn the hard lessons of life through laughter, sorrow and getting in trouble with each chapter. As she matures, her father and mother instill moral values along the way. However, much like Anne of Green Gables her young spirit full of life never leaves her a moment of rest.
