The Old Man Who Lived in a Wood

"There was an old Man who lived in a wood, as you shall plainly see, He thought he could do more work in a day, than his wife could do in three."

Unfortunately for the old man, his wife decides to show him just how much work she has to do. They switch jobs for the day, and the old man's day is full of one mishap after another!

This delightful vintage children's book from the Edwardian era still stands strong as a lesson to children about women's strength. Older children can read it themselves, and younger children will enjoy the wonderful and funny pictures while being read to. For grade 1 and up.
