I remember those books very well, Quirky. I would read the whole book they first day they were handed out to us even though we were encouraged not to read ahead. I don't know why, but in particular, I remember the story of Mother getting dressed up to go to the city for the day on a train. I loved those books and years in school.
Are you familiar with Jocko, Jerry and Jo-Jo, the monkeys that were featured in our early "arithmetic" books?
Thanks for stirring up those old warm memories again.
