Grandma Wentworth's Children's Storybooks, Volume One

A small pencil rolled off the tipping desk and fell to the floor. A faint voice could be heard. "Ouch!" Another voice came, "Who is that?" The first voice came back, "It's me, Peter Pencil; I fell off the desk and bruised myself! Who are you?" "I'm Patti Paper," the voice replied. The stories in Grandma Wentworth's Children's Storybooks, Volume One are based on relationships between people and non-people (desks, chairs, pencils, paper, trash cans, etc.). On a quiet, secluded farm on the outskirts of a small town lived a lonely little woman. She had lived by herself since the passing of her husband some fifteen years earlier. Because of Mrs. Johnson's grief over the loss of her husband, she established imaginary relationships with the objects a writer comes in contact with.
