A woman living on an isolated prairie longs to throw a big party and fill the house with merriment. Her husband points out that the couple has no friends, and no food, so it's not likely to happen.

Or is it?

A super happy fun story illustrated with simple line drawings.

There may be too much text for some fidgety listeners, but I enjoyed it.

A family favorite. I still re-read it when I'm nostalgic for those days when our children were small.
