When Mom and Grandma go shopping, it’s Grandpa’s job to stay with Maddie and keep her out of trouble. Although he tends to tell jokes that aren’t funny, he, Maddie, and Maddie’s dog Lukie enjoy their time together. One day, while casting about for something fun to do, Grandpa suggests they build a fort. By emptying the linen closet and rearranging the furniture, they build a fantastic fort in the living room—which Maddie’s mom promptly orders to be taken down when she returns home! Fortunately for Maddie, Grandpa has a plan to build a fort they’ll never have to take apart, right in his own backyard. Told from the point of view of energetic ten-year-old Maddie, Grandpa Showed Me How to Make a Fort offers a whimsical look at how the simplest of projects can become a tender, treasured memory to be shared between a granddaughter and grandfather.

Excerpt from The Child's Rainy Day BookHow shall we answer the ever recurring rainy day question, What shall I do? We hear it wherever children are kept indoors - from what ever cause. All of us are concerned with the answer - mothers, fathers, teachers, big brothers and sisters - even maiden aunts. We all know what is coming when Jack turns from the rain Splashed window with a listless face and Dorothy, none too gently, thrusts her favourite doll into the corner with its face to the wall.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
