We finished the second half of reading this aloud tonight after reading the first half the other night. It was a simple short read and very interesting for my five-year-old son who had really enjoyed listening to The Sign of the Beaver in the last few weeks. He is near to reading and I'm sure he would pick this up and read it with interest now. We read The Thanksgiving Story first and are planning on reading The Courage of Sarah Noble next. So far, my kiddos are really enjoying Alice Dalgliesh. I wish more of her backlist titles were available to find. Included below are interesting tidbits. We own a paperback copy of this reader, the blue one with the eyes but no red banner. We also have it as included in the You Read to Me and I'll Read to You treasury that includes fewer images. The Kindle Freetime Unlimited copy has the white copy that is indicative of Helen Sewell's illustrations (which are in each of my copies) we also have in our trial. Our paperback of The Sign of the Beaver shows the brown bear full cover, while the Kindle Freetime Unlimited copy is the yellow cover image. Our hardcover jacketed copy of The Courage of Sarah Noble includes the sepia-toned cover with no medal while on the Kindle Freetime Unlimited copy is pink and green. We also own an Audible copy of Sarah Noble. —Included in the [b:You Read to Me & I'll Read to You: Stories to Share from the 20th Century 1433260 You Read to Me & I'll Read to You Stories to Share from the 20th Century Janet Schulman https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1320424214l/1433260.SX50.jpg 1423798] treasury[bc:You Read to Me & I'll Read to You: Stories to Share from the 20th Century 1433260 You Read to Me & I'll Read to You Stories to Share from the 20th Century Janet Schulman https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1320424214l/1433260.SX50.jpg 1423798][bc:The Bears on Hemlock Mountain 37024 The Bears on Hemlock Mountain Alice Dalgliesh https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1292280568l/37024.SX50.jpg 36929][bc:The Bears on Hemlock Mountain 19092006 The Bears on Hemlock Mountain (Ready-for-Chapters) Alice Dalgliesh https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1385948220l/19092006.SX50.jpg 36929][bc:The Sign of the Beaver 830182 The Sign of the Beaver Elizabeth George Speare https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1320542033l/830182.SX50.jpg 1282066][bc:The Sign of the Beaver 830182 The Sign of the Beaver Elizabeth George Speare https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1320542033l/830182.SX50.jpg 1282066][bc:The Sign of the Beaver 10144666 The Sign of the Beaver Elizabeth George Speare https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1328836911l/10144666.SX50.jpg 1282066][bc:The Courage of Sarah Noble 1758694 The Courage of Sarah Noble Alice Dalgliesh https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1348821810l/1758694.SX50.jpg 2937115][bc:The Courage of Sarah Noble 19008605 The Courage of Sarah Noble (Ready-For-Chapters) Alice Dalgliesh https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1394758453l/19008605.SX50.jpg 2937115]
