I first read this book in the 4th grade with Mr. McCloskey as a Substitue Teacher! Growing up in Maine with many blueberry fields around you can certainly connect with this adorable book. Now living far from "Home" I happened across this book in a store and had to stop to read it again. Timeless! Oh the memories! There is nothing like fresh blueberries from the field!
