The Little Old Woman Who Used Her Head and Other Stories
by Hope NewellInstead of wasting her money on brass buttons that cost two-for-a-penny, the Little Old Woman uses her head--and buys a hole puncher and drills the pennies to use them for buttons. And the reason she needs brass buttons is that the geese keep losing them from the little red jackets she made them when she used her head after making herself a feather bed and feeling sorry for the chilly plucked geese. Whatever the problem--a too-tall Christmas tree or a homeless baby elephant or how to get herself and her pet rats up in time to see the circus parade--the Little Old Woman knows what to do. She ties a wet towel around her head, sits down with her finger against her nose, closes her eyes, and uses her head--with hilarious results. The Little Old Woman stories have been popular since the publication of the first book about this delightful character in 1935. This new edition includes over a score of charming and humorous stories from the three well-loved volumes about her and is sure to be a continuing favorite with the read-aloud audience, as well as with young readers who can enjoy them on their own.
