The Red Brick House Shirley Phillips Porter

??Where are we? Kady asked, as they turned to look at the entire room. They saw the kitchen had a wood-burning stove, no sink faucet, and no refrigerator.? ??I don?t know, Allie said, ?but look out this window, across the yard and the garden. Isn?t that the cotton patch where Nanna said she had to cross the narrow dirt road to help pick cotton?? The sisters, Allie, Kady, Lindey, and their cousin, Taylor, have been transported into their great grandmother?s world when she is five and then again when she is seven. During their second visit, Taylor?s little brother, Lance, shows up, surprising everyone, except Minnie, who has expected him and is so pleased he has come with them. This fictional story is based on contemporary children, who are real, and the historical, real-life happenings of the Tucker family in the 1920?s told by Jewel Tucker Phillips.
