A young girl and her family are traveling through the forest and they start to find a lot of random items around an old stone platform. They find a small yellow bottle and a china doll arm. The family starts to imagine another family that used to live in the very spot they were exploring. The family they are imagining seems very real to them and they are unsure if the family is really there or not. The imaginary family disappears but there are other forest animals that are now visible. The family realizes that the animals are living in the forest in place of the family. This de-accessioned book, marked "Discarded," on sale at my local public library is about an abandoned house in the woods. All that remains are the chimney, the house's foundation, the daffidils that bloom every spring, and broken bits and pieces that give hints of the lives of the people who once lived there. The vibrant water colors by Jerry Pinkney show a modern-day family wandering about the place and an African-American family of long ago living in the house. The book encourages the reader to think about how objects hint at history, especially the history of ordinary people. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
