I have to admit, he's only four and I read them to him because I was looking for something wholesome that reflects our lifestyle more -we don't do t.v./ipads and we do alot of handwork (woodcarving, sewing, butter making, making beeswax polish from our beeswax -husband is a beekeeper).

The descriptions of the books on Goodreads say the year is 1892 - why could they not put that at least on the cover of the book?
