(liza) Re: Searching for the Dog Book

Hi Dad,

November 30th is great. Next week I'll come over on whatever day you're free to work on Lydia Pinkham Pinkham Pinkham, and I'll bring the sheet music I've written up for Frank (I faxed it to him too). I sure am looking forward to the show - what fun it will be! I'm most looking forward to Jane and Nick's play - that is SO cool that they've actually written a play! It's inspiring. Can't wait to see it. Now I want to write a play too!

Last night I saw "Baran" - new Iranian film about Afghan refugees there - it was in the theaters here about three months ago and got good reviews. I wasn't impressed. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't great. By the director of Children of Heaven.

I have a book I want to read to you. It is SO much fun. It's called "A Walk In The Woods" about hiking the Appalachian Trail. I'll check it out of the library and bring it over when I come, to read a chapter or two or twenty.

Love Liza

That doesn't sound right. It was not a gorgeous book; it was a simple
little school book. And it was not quaint and old fashioned. It was a
simple kid's story about summer and mommy and two little children
picking berries.

Our Hanukkah party will be on Saturday evening, November 30. Good!

Love Daddy

Dad, I don't think this is probably it, but thought I'd try anyway.
This is evidenly a gorgeous book, published in 1901, one of a series by Elsa Beskow.
Is it the one you read? I'll keep looking! We'll find it!!
Love Liza
