Lorraine: The Girl Who Sang the Storm Away

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Higgins Bond. On their Tennessee farm, Lorraine and Pa Paw make beautiful music together--he on his harmonica, and she on her pennywhistle. However, when things begin disappearing on the farm and a fierce storm arises, Lorraine and Pa Paw have to depend on their voices to make music and chase away fear. Written in rhyming verse and realistically illustrated with setting-evoking detail, the folkloric story is one of nostalgia and finding joy.
