Aunt Louise Comes to Visit by Katie Brewster
Picture
Katie Spivey Brewster’s whimsical poetry and Mary Barrow’s endearing illustrations tell the story of the regular visits of Katie’s great aunt and the Whitman's Sampler she always brought with her while Katie was a child in Wilmington, NC.

Aunt Louise visits twice a year, always dressed,
in shoes, bag, and hat to match.
And every time she visits, she brings the girls,
a very special snack.
 But this time she has forgotten it, or to the girls,
it so seems.
 They wonder if they’ll miss the pleasure, of eating the treats,
of which they’ve dreamed.

Disclaimer:    Whitman’s Sampler is a product of Russell Stover Chocolates (RSC) and the use of the Whitman’s Sampler name and images in this book, on this website, and in the Story Time by KT Brison has not been endorsed by RSC.

What Our Clients Are Saying

"Jim, the books we purchased are quite worn now. Our boys really like them. They were impressed that we "actually" knew you. I will gladly review your new book....is it okay if I read it to the boys? Again, thanks for writing the books. Our older boys have ADHD and learning disabilities and your books kept their attention."
