At the barn, you can select from a variety of the late local author’s works including the Pulitzer Prize winning Complete PoemsAbe Lincoln Grows Up (a biography for young adults), and several illustrated selections from Sandburg’s children’s series, Rootabaga Stories. Selections from Rootabaga Stories include: The Huckabuck Family, The Wedding Procession of the Ragdoll and the Broom Handle, and Never Kick a Slipper at the Moon! You can also bring your own favorite book as well.

National Reading Month was originally established to celebrate the author so many grew up reading, Dr. Seuss, and to promote reading at all age levels.
