Grandy Thaxter's Helper

32 pp. | Atheneum | September, 2004 | Trade ISBN 0-689-83020-3 $15.95
(2) K-3 Illustrated by S. D. Schindler. When Mister Death comes to call, industrious Grandy Thaxter is busy but says, "If you give me a hand, I can leave sooner." He agrees, but Grandy has an endless amount of backbreaking housework, and, exhausted, Mister Death decides to come back another time. The finely detailed illustrations reflect and extend the well-told story's humor and olden-days setting.
