Joyful, humorous, and zany, these classic stories are unique Americana. Rootabaga Stories, Part One includes all the material originally published as Rootabaga Stories in 1922. Welcome to Rootabaga Country--where the railroad tracks go from straight to zigzag, where the pigs wear bibs, and where the Village of Cream Puffs floats in the wind. You'll meet baby balloon pickers, flummywisters, corn fairies, and blue foxes--and if you're not careful, you may never find your way back home!

A second volume, to be published in Spring 1989, will include all the stories published as Rootabaga Pigeons in 1923.
