Two That Were Tough
Kathleen F. Westray, 1976
Description
A no-nonsense text regarding a subject which is difficult for young children, the problems of the aged, that we wished to convey in a direct yet compassionate manner. The pencil and wash drawings tenderly and unsentimentally evoke a feeling young readers on the lonely verge of adulthood will recognize—one man’s determination to preserve his independence.
