The Adventures of Clarissa and Gregory

Based on the true life adventures of Clarissa Nadine Townsend and her brother Paul Gregory Townsend, during the Great Depression years, 1929 through 1931, when Clarissa was between three and five years old. It was a different world back then - no cell phones or computers or television. Children got up to all kinds of mischief! This first collection of stories begins with the family living in the village of Clayton, Michigan. Later they will move to the country where they will build a new home - and the adventures will continue... Remember the way children's books used to be? Grandparents and other family members reading bedtime stories and looking at the pictures together?Now you can revisit those magical days with your youngsters. Elm Grove Publishing's "Children's Books for Grandparents" series features brand new stories, traditionally told in classically styled books that will capture the imagination and the heart, specially designed and printed for grandparents, parents, aunts and uncles, even big brothers and sisters, to read to small children.
