The illustrations elevate this slight, heartwarming story into something that made my eyes fill with tears every time I turned a page. A simply lovely evocation of a different time- a time when stamps were two cents and a pair of little girls aged 8 and 6 were free to wander around their town selling bluing. I enjoyed it mightily and suspect the under ten set might as well. I found this at a thrift shop and have just discovered that it's part of a series. I'll be looking for the rest!
