Tomie DePaola’s Front Porch Tales & North Country Whoppers
In studying the New England states, one of the books I found was Front Porch Tales & North Country Whoppers by Tomie DePaola. I love how the stories paint a picture of the region. They are reminiscent of tall tales in the way they are related.
