Mr. Plimpton the milkman!

This book is so wholesome full of 1950's nostalgia with wonderfully rhyming text its so catchy your sure to have the whole book memorized after a few times! The story is simple Mr. Plimpton the milkman is making his rounds (and he's in full get up little milkman hat and his little milkman cat in his milk truck moving slowly through the town before the sun has even risen) but during this mornings deliveries he discovers signs posted throughout the neighborhood saying on a big blue sign "Lost my dog, love Caroline" and who better but the milkman to save the day! I started reading this book after finding it at the local library to my daughter at age 2 and shes three now and the book never gets old and I suspect it won't anytime soon! Go Carol Foskett Cordsen thanks for bringing back the memories of her grandma in a special fun way!
