That is too funny. Just jarred loose some serious childhood memories…from mine and my kids childhood!
The illustrations are so amazing! Found a 1969 printing of “best storybook ever” that really blew my mind! Love the church hill take!

Totally! I feel more at home here than in any other neighborhood in Richmond and we had tons of these books in our house growing up.
