This is the first story of the fiery red-head at Miss Clavel's.

My daughter loves this book, and is starting to recite this story as well. The illustrations are so simple, it's great!

We heart Madeline!]]> 3 0 false false Tue Mar 03 08:05:20 -0800 2009 Tue Mar 03 08:09:41 -0800 2009 5 0 false false Sun Aug 09 12:50:56 -0700 2009 Sun Aug 09 12:51:16 -0700 2009
