Mary Jo Huff is an excellent storyteller. We had persimmon trees on the farm where I grew up. While we didn’t do much with the fruit, I do like a good ripe persimmon. My former mother in law use to make persimmon bread. So this delightful children’s tale of how to predict winter weather is one in a long line of folklore about predicting winter weather. The illustrations were in cartoon fashion and very appropriate for the story. I could just hear my friend Mary Jo telling this story. Children will love it.
