“In Grandma’s Attic” by Arleta Richardson

Other titles by this author-
“More Stories From Grandma’s Attic” and “Still More Stories From Grandma’s Attic”

This is a fun series- stories about the author’s grandma when she was a little girl on a Michigan farm in the late 1800s. Some good moral lessons, and plenty of fun- good-hearted kids getting into mischief and learning their lesson. There are a few books in the “series”- but they don’t really have to be read in a certain order.
