THE STOREKEEPER
Written and illustrated by
Tracey Campbell Pearson
Dial Books for Young Readers 1988
SUMMARY
From the doughnut man to the neighborhood cats
and dogs, everyone bounces into the general store to say good morning
to the storekeeper. Her day is packed with rummaging customers, rambunctious
children and friendly folks who come in for a chat. Part grocery store,
part hardware store, gift shop, gas station, bakery, and post office;
her store has everything you need-from plumbing supplies to baby clothes,
beach balls to bananas. And when evening comes and all is quiet, the
storekeeper goes upstairs for the night-until the sun brings a new day
and fresh delights.
ALL ABOUT THE STOREKEEPER
This book is a portrait of a small town general
store, based on the one near my home in Vermont. Click for the inside
story, photos, sketches and interior illustrations. (Coming
