Momma's Magical Purse

Rachael and her cousin David are going on a picnic with Rachael's momma. When the rain starts, Momma is ready with umbrellas and coats. When Rachael trips on a branch, Momma pulls out bandages. Rachael knows Momma's purse is magical-how else could so much stuff fit in there? But David has his doubts . . . until he finds himself in the middle of the lake, and it's up to Momma and her life preserver to save him. A lighthearted romp that is perfect for the purseholder in every family.

Rachel, her cousin David, and her Momma are all going to the park. Throughout the story Rachel tries to prove to her cousin that her Momma's purse is magical. Different incidents happen throughout the story where Momma has to dig through her magical purse to solve the problems. From unexpected rainy weather, a knee scratch, and a surprise picnic Momma literally pulls everything out of her purse and Rachel quickly shows David that the purse is magical. A notable feature about this fiction book is the sense of humor shown through the descriptive pictures and the adventures they all go on throughout the book. I would use this book as an instructional application to show that when things happen unexpectedly the people you love will be there show more to take care of you. show less
