Details

Synopsis A young girl tells her friend about the traveling store her grandfather used to visit when he was a child. At the time her grandfather grew up, few people had cars, so the store would come to them--a pickup truck filled with wonderful things to buy. Inspired by the past, the girls decide to set up their own traveling store. Illustrated with watercolor paintings and colored pencil drawings., As she and a friend are loading a wagon with cookies and fans they have made, a young girl repeats the story of a wondrous Rolling Store that used to come to the country where Granddaddy lived when he was young.

Industry Reviews "Johnson's gentle family story has a certain nostalgic appeal, and that nostalgia is reflected in Catalanotto's soft, sentimental watercolors." Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books - Janice M. Del Negro (05/19/1997)
"This is a lovely story of memories being passed on to and re-enacted by a later generation; children will relate to it instantly and grasp the double-layered story in the pictures. Catalanotto's golden pencil-and-watercolor paintings shimmer with the haze of memory and are dappled with summer sunlight and shadow." Smith
