Grampa Hale's Tales Janine Hale Reter

Grampa Hale's Tales is a collection of stories for children. It starts out with the beauty makeover of a little witch, which was created by my granddaughter, Janine Hale Reter, when she was just five years old. That story led to my post-retirement career as a storyteller in the schools. You will also find some tall tales, a story of a boy who always had to be first, and a finger story about learning how to work together. There is a neglected child who gets only peanut butter for Christmas. That's followed by "Too Much Dad."Wesley Brown ends the book with a delightful story-poem about two young boys who try to dress like knights with scraps and imagination.
