CIP info In the early, early morning, the milkman makes his rounds helping his neighbors in a variety of ways.

I love this book. The illustrations have a vintage look and feel about them. They allow the reader to be transported back to a simplier time. The story combines with these great illustrations to build a comforting story. The rhyming text falls into a soothing cadence. The reader makes the rounds with the milkman clearly seeing that he is an important part of this community. A great way to share simpler times with a younger generation and have a great story of community and fellowship.
