Donald Hall,Barbara Cooney: Ox-cart Man

Ox-cart Man


Description

Winner of the Caldecott Medal Thus begins a lyrical journey through the days and weeks, the months, and the changing seasons in the life of one New Englander and his family. The oxcart man packs his goods - the wool from his sheep, the shawl his wife made, the mittens his daughter knitted, and the linen they wove. He packs the birch brooms his son carved, and even a bag of goose feathers from the barnyard geese. He travels over hills, through valleys, by streams, past farms and villages. At Portsmouth Market he sells his goods, one by one - even his beloved ox. Then, with his pockets full of coins, he wanders through the market, buying provisions for his family, and returns to his home. And the cycle begins again. "Like a pastoral symphony translated into picture book format, the stunning combination of text and illustrations recreates the mood of 19-century rural New England." The Horn Book"

If someone destroyed your city? Anyone who has strolled around Venice in search of something to eat will have come across cicchetti. They are served in bars, bacari and other eateries from late morning onwards and are the Venetian equivalent of Italian antipasti, Spanish tapas, French canapes, Thai street food or English finger food. Cicchetti are irresistible little morsels full of local flavour. Made using traditional methods and produce, these meat, seafood, and vegetable treats are the best of Italian cooking in miniature. Cicchetti is a comprehensive collection of authentic and innovative recipes that will set your taste buds tingling. At the center of this warm and fuzzy Ox-cart Man ebook pdf romp is Rob Wilco, a single, mild-mannered ad executive and guardian of Bucky and Satchel, anthropomorphic scamps that still live by their animal instincts. Bucky is a temperamental cat who clearly wears the pants in this eccentric household. Satchel is a gentle pooch with a sensitive soul who tries to remain neutral, but frequently ends up on the receiving end of Bucky's mischief. Together, they create a hilarious tableau of animal versus human nature.
