Review: Stories from My Childhood : All my favorite stories from the early 1940's are captured here: "Three billy goats" presented in 3 pages can easily be memorized, told to children and grandchildren who will pass it on ... "Chicken Little" is here, as is the "Three Bears", "The Teeny, tiny Lady" and many more. Mostly from unknown sources, Bailey captured the best of the best in these 92 pages at a price everyone can afford. Twenty-two stories that delighted children in yesteryear, continue to do the same. Not to be omitted is the fact that Carolyn Sherwin Bailey was a prolific writer herself with the skill of editing with inflection and choice of words for the delight of the storyteller and reader.
